Eyewitness in Nuseirat: 'I saw dead children and body parts strewn all over'

Mohammed al-Hajjar, MEE's reporter in central Gaza, spoke to Nidal Abdo, who was in Nuseirat camp and witnessed Israel's military operation. 

"The occupation has annihilated the Nuseirat refugee camp. Innocent and unarmed civilian were bombed in their homes. I've never seen anything like this. It's a catastrophe," Abdo told MEE.

"I came from the camp to here in [Al-Aqsa Martyrs] hospital on foot. I can't describe how we fled. I saw dead children and body parts strewn all over as we fled. No one was able to assist them. I saw an elderly man killed on an animal-drawn cart. Nuseirat was being annihilated. It was hell."
