"Dr Alaa al-Najjar, a paediatric specialist at al-Tahrir hospital within the Nasser Medical Complex, was treating victims of ongoing Israeli attacks across the strip on Friday when she was shocked to find her own children and husband brought into the hospital.

The children - the eldest aged 12 and the youngest just six months - were severely burned in the bombing."

      It is. I really do agreed with OP though, I’m pretty convinced this is hell. Look around a bit and it’s hard not to think that

          I’ve never even considered this. Checking it out now.

          I’ve always just assumed hell is each persons worst case scenario.

          Edit, agreed, but for slightly different reasons.

            That’s fair.
