[Episcopal News Service] Al Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza City is appealing for urgent aid as it struggles to provide critical healthcare services to anyone in need following more than a week of Israeli airstrikes targeting Hamas militants.
One of more than 35 institutions run by the Episcopal Diocese of Jerusalem, the hospital is striving to meet the increased demands on its already-overburdened staff, who have tended to the wounded despite being surrounded by conflict, the challenges of diminishing medical supplies, and their own fatigue.
Like many hospitals in Gaza, Al Ahli Hospital is receiving patients who have been wounded, with staff working around the clock to provide them with critical medical care, wrote Anglican Bishop in Jerusalem Suheil Dawani in an e-mail to church partners. At the same time, Al Ahli is experiencing shortages in medicine, fuel, and food for both patients and those in the community who need help.

They're first on the ground in most hell holes and the money goes to medical needs without being diverted to warlords or shady organizations or even governments more likely to squander it on more weapons.
They're getting everything when I kick the bucket.

As using human shields. There must be thousands of people going to see them for care.
I just can't imagine the living hell they have found themselves facing.
