A medic tells Jeremy Bowen of the moments of panic and hopelessness immediately after an Israeli strike on a shelter.

“We were living in so much fear. When the school was hit, we had people killed and injured. There was nothing there to eat or drink. The water tanker that was usually sent to us was bombed by the Israelis. It was like that for days.
Three days ago, a quadcopter descended on the school at nine in the morning, giving us an ultimatum to get out by 10. The quadcopter loudspeaker said we had to evacuate the school because we were in a dangerous fighting zone.”
“We didn’t have time to pack our stuff. It gave us just one hour. After just 10 minutes, Israeli airplanes bombed the school. It was a big massacre with over 30 wounded and more than 10 killed.”
In the video, the wounded and dead on the bloody stairs are not the only casualties. Nevine leaves the stairwell, and runs to a man probably in his sixties, who is leaning over a pile of bags with his head in his hands. She looks to see if somehow, he has survived a severe neck wound and screams when she sees that he has not.
“Help him, he’s dead – it’s Uncle Abu Mohammed.”
Three days later I sent questions for a Palestinian freelance journalist to ask her at al Ahli hospital in Gaza City. One was about Abu Mohammed.
“He was our neighbour. His two sons were also killed… one had half his head gone.”

This is the kind of 'notice' that the IDF are giving.
This is the kind of behaviour that some of the complete idiots on here hand wave.
Imagine being a keyboard warrior sat behind a screen telling everyone day in, day out how they don't give a fuck and this should be allowed to continue. Utter scumbags.
