"It is with profound sorrow and outrage that Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) confirms the death of our colleague Abed El Hameed Qaradaya. Despite the care provided by the medical teams, he succumbed to his critical shrapnel injuries on Sunday, October 5, following an attack on October 2 that also killed our colleague Omar Hayek and injured several others.

The attack, carried out by Israeli forces in Gaza, struck a street where our teams were waiting to take a bus to go to work at MSF field hospital in Deir al-Balah. All staff were wearing MSF vests, which clearly identified them as medical humanitarian workers."

For 18 years, Abed El Hameed was a cornerstone of MSF’s physiotherapy department in Gaza. He was a unique and invaluable specialist in both physiotherapy and occupational therapy. Abed was dedicated not only to his patients’ physical recovery but also to restoring their hope and sense of dignity.

His loss is immense and has a tragic impact on his loved ones, MSF, and the health system in Gaza.

You can't replace people like Abed.

Stop killing medical workers.
 
War criminal Netanyahu supporters respond with the "human shield" defense as a good enough reason to kill Abed El Hameed in 5... 4... 3...

(All this killing is getting old, getting the world no where, and ensuring Netanyahu's place in the history books for all the wrong reasons.)

They were waiting for transport to go out to one of the field hospitals. Two were killed and there were others injured. They had their MSF vests on, which clearly identified them as medical workers.

Sickening.

May he rest in peace, I've given to this organization over the years. They do dangerous and important work for humanity, hate to see them gunned down by a bloodthirsty war criminal like Netanyahu. He wants the hostages returned so he can kill the Palestinians more easily, without having to falsely admit any oopsies when he kills innocent allies. He lies like trump and Putin.

The health system has already been decimated and things are incredibly dire without killing Staff.

Thank you for your contributions. Much appreciated.

My heart goes out to those people, can't image the pain, sorrow and terror they've been experiencing. It's a pleasure to have the opportunity to give to those doing this life saving work around the world, I wish them safety and peace.

The vast majority of the victims in this genocide are noncombatants according to Israel's own tallies (likely a severe undercount in and of itself).

If anyone is still defending this evil, there isn't an evil they won't defend.
 
If you had said that to me 2 years ago, I wouldn't have agreed with you.
What do you know about this specific attack? Who was its target? What type of ammunition was used? How many people in general were hit?
It's indeed unfortunate and tragic that civilians (and medical workers among them) lose their lives in wars, in this case a war started and kept going by an Islamist terrorist organization, but it doesn't automatically mean that they are being shot indiscriminately or that people are shooting without care for who gets hit. Israel had carried hundreds of thousands of attacks on Hamas targets in the past 2 years and obviously in the overwhelming majority of them civilians have not been killed.
 
Years ago I was reading about MSF in West Africa helping those in dire need during an outbreak of Ebola, at great risk to themselves.

I’ve been a fan and supporter since then.

MSF workers are incredibly brave, and go where there is need, no matter the personal dangers they may face. Those who have remained in Gaza are the best of us. Blessings on them all.

There really isn't any crime or atrocity you will not defend in service to your state is there?

You support a genocide and so the murder of a few medics in the grand scheme of things isn't going to trouble you is it?

Maybe they were all handcuffed to Hamas fighters at the time, eh?

Where did I 'support a genocide'? That would have put me on the same level as the likes of you.

And I'm still waiting for @Serenity 's response to this, not the terror supporting antisemites she proudly associates herself with here.

You have denied the genocide taking place in Gaza in masses of posts, denial of an ongoing genocide IS support for it. This has been your MO for the entire period since 7th October attack.

You have failed to show a single post of mine denying any genocide, you just lie about it because that's what you are good at, lying.

Maybe she won't reply because she knows exactly what you are and sees no point in engaging with you only to be lied about in the end anyway. That's the experience on so many people here it's untrue.

Show where I " support terror" or admit this is just another of you evidence free accusations, lies.

Recall I call out war crimes whoever engages in them, you are the one who supports them which actually makes you the " terror supporter"

Having a terror supporter who promotes antisemitism and identifies with Iran, Assad's Syria, Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis, etc. must be really nice for her.

Your commentary should be an embarrassment for you but it isn't.

That in and of itself speaks volumes.

:rolleyes:

Nothing good can come out of having any discussions with you now.

I couldn't be less interested in your gaslighting bullshit anymore.
 
Pfff, was always the case. He's unfortunately reflective of the homicidal, genocidal mania that has infected the Zionist nationalist population of Israel.

And it was always going to reach this point due to the indoctrination of the population with racist/supremacist propaganda 24/7.

Gaslighting my ass, you proudly associate yourself with terror supporters and antisemites and even this post and the posts that followed it show it.
At least be honest about your hatred like those people are, your fake morality is the worst kind. How do you like to say? Sickening.

His accusations of terror should start with 1948 nakba, in which we now see its end.

People like you are the reason there were special Middle East rules in the first place.

Accusing a moderator of supporting terror is as cowardly and low form as it gets.

Stop supporting the indiscriminate murder of her Doctor colleagues, reporters, and babies.

Einstein was correct, and Likud laughs at ‘Trivial Trump to them’, as they steal the WB next.
