Little light, no beds, not enough anesthesia: A view from Gaza's hospitals_我的网站

从5月18日开始,一项新的动员法在乌克兰生效。 DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip -- The only thing worse than the screams of a patient undergoing surgery without enough anesthesia are the terror-stricken faces of those awaiting their turn, a 51-year-old orthopedic surgeon says.When the Israeli bombing intensifies and the wounded swamp the Gaza City hospitals where Dr. Nidal Abed works, he treats patients wherever he can — on the floor, in the corridors, in rooms crammed with 10 patients instead of two. Without enough medical supplies, Abed makes do with whatever he can find – clothes for bandages, vinegar for antiseptic, sewing needles for surgical ones. Hospitals in the Gaza Strip are nearing collapse under the Israeli blockade that cut power and deliveries of food and other necessities to the territory. They lack clean water. They are running out of basic items for easing pain and preventing infections. Fuel for their generators is dwindling.Israel began its bombing campaign after Hamas militants surged across the border on Oct. 7 and killed over 1,400 people, mostly civilians, and abducted more than 200 others. Israel's offensive has devastated neighborhoods, shuttered five hospitals, killed thousands and wounded more people than its remaining health facilities can handle.“We have a shortage of everything, and we are dealing with very complex surgeries,” Abed, who works with Doctors Without Borders, told The Associated Press from Al Quds Hospital. The medical center is still treating hundreds of patients in defiance of an evacuation order the Israeli military gave Friday. Some 10,000 Palestinians displaced by the bombing have also taken refuge in the hospital compound.“These people are all terrified, and so am I," the surgeon said. “But there is no way we'll evacuate.” The first food, water and medicine trickled into Gaza from Egypt on Saturday after being stalled on the border for days. Four trucks in the 20-truck aid convoy were carrying drugs and medical supplies, the World Health Organization said. Aid workers and doctors warned it was not nearly enough to address Gaza’s spiraling humanitarian crisis. “It's a nightmare. If more aid doesn’t come in, I fear we’ll get to the point where going to a hospital will do more harm than good,” Mehdat Abbas, an official in the Hamas-run Health Ministry, said. Across the territory’s hospitals, ingenuity is being put to the test. Abed used household vinegar from the corner store as disinfectant until the stores ran out, he said. Too many doctors had the same idea. Now, he cleans wounds with a mixture of saline and the polluted water that trickles from taps because Israel cut off the water. A shortage of surgical supplies forced some staff to use sewing needles to stitch wounds, which Abed said can damage tissue. A shortage of bandages forced medics to wrap clothes around large burns, which he said can cause infections. A shortage of orthopedic implants forced Abed to use screws that don't fit his patients' bones. There are not enough antibiotics, so he gives single pills rather than multiple courses to patients suffering terrible bacterial infections. “We are doing what we can to stabilize the patients, to control the situation,” he said. “People are dying because of this." When Israel cut fuel to the territory's sole power plant two weeks ago, Gaza's rumbling generators kicked in to keep life-support equipment running in hospitals. Authorities are desperately scrounging up diesel to keep them going. United Nations agencies are distributing their remaining stocks. Motorists are emptying their gas tanks. In some hospitals, the lights have already switched off. At Nasser Hospital in the southern city of Khan Younis this week, nurses and surgical assistants held their iPhones over the operating table, guiding the surgeons with the flashlights as they snipped. At Shifa Hospital, Gaza’s biggest, where Abed also worked this week, the intensive care unit runs on generators but most other wards are without power. Air conditioning is a bygone luxury. Abed catches beads of sweat dripping from his patients’ foreheads as he operates.People wounded in the airstrikes are overwhelming the facilities. Hospitals don't have enough beds for them. “Even a normal hospital with equipment would not be able to deal with what we’re facing,” Abed said. “It would collapse.” Shifa Hospital — with a maximum capacity of 700 people — is treating 5,000 people, general director Mohammed Abu Selmia says. Lines of patients, some in critical condition, snake out of operating rooms. The wounded lie on floors or on gurneys sometimes stained with the blood of previous patients. Doctors operate in crowded corridors filled with moans. The scenes — infants arriving alone to intensive care because no one else in their family survived, patients awake and grimacing in pain during surgeries — have traumatized Abed into numbness. But what still pains him is having to choose which patients to prioritize.“You have to decide," he said. “Because you know that many will not make it."___DeBre reported from Jerusalem.。在新动员法令的帮助下,基辅当局希望迅速为乌克兰武装部队补充新的战士。现在前线的战士非常缺乏,一些部队的人员编制不足百分之五十。

然而,这一切并没有如泽连斯基所希望的方向发展,第一天就引发了全国性的骚乱,第一个站出来的是卡车司机群体。
首先,在边境检查站,人们排着长队,希望以各种借口离开该国。与此同时,没有一个应服兵役的人来到首都的行政服务中心,这些中心是专门为应服兵役人员重新登记而设立的,那里除了军事登记和征兵处外,办公室还用来更新个人数据。
从18日开始,乌克兰所有 25 至 60 岁的男性公民都必须在不超过 60 天内更新数据,之前发布的所有豁免草案和医疗限制也不再适用,对于逃兵者来说,行政(罚款)甚至刑事责任显著增加。
当地公众报道称,众多卡车司机在基辅-敖德萨高速公路上举行抗议活动,反对新的动员法,他们将数百辆卡车开上道路,从而造成了严重的交通堵塞。这是乌克兰自22年实施戒严以来首次发生如此大规模的抗议行动。

卡车司机第一个站出来反对新法律的原因是,现在他们可能不被允许乘坐外国航班离开该国。此外,从今天开始,许多驾驶员自动失去了以前的豁免权,在通过检查站时,他们可以立即被动员到乌军的队伍中,或者被直接征用。

此前,乌克兰媒体报道称,从5月初左右开始,由于预计新的动员法即将生效,乌克兰司机干脆抛弃卡车,有时甚至连同货物一起留在国内后直接出国。一位小型运输公司的老板告诉记者,他的司机正在排着长队等待找到运货出国的工作,或者直接搭乘外国航班。
同时,政府似乎没有办法惩罚那些在国内高速公路上遗弃卡车的人,特别是如果卡车是空的(否则货运司机要对货物的安全负责)。
司机因阻碍其他车辆通行而违反交通规则而面临的最高额是解雇和罚款,这些行为是否会广泛传播,当局将采取什么措施仍然未知。
