"Palestinian gynecologist and peace advocate Dr. Ezzeldeen Abu al-Aish speaks to Democracy Now! producer Anjali Kamat and Jacquie Soohen of Big Noise Films in his home in Jabaliya, Gaza, where Israeli shells killed three of his daughters and a niece two months ago. Walking through his daughters’ room, he points out the remnants from the attack: blood stained walls, books, clothes, hand-drawn pictures, gaping holes that were once windows, burned out bits of computers, twisted pieces of metal, destroyed cupboards, shattered glass, and shrapnel.
We turn now to one of the better known tragedies from Israel’s war on Gaza, a tragedy that partly unfolded live on Israeli television. Dr. Ezzeldeen Abu al-Aish is a well-known Gazan gynecologist and peace advocate who has worked in Israeli hospitals for several years. He speaks fluent Hebrew and during the war he was a rare Palestinian voice on Israeli television and radio, giving daily accounts of life and death inside Gaza.
But the ambulances never reached the doctor’s home, which was surrounded by Israeli tanks. It was too late to save his three daughters, 21-year old Bessan, 15-year old Mayar, 13-year old Aya, and his niece Nour, aged 14, who were all killed instantly by the shells....."
