00:00And right now, what is the situation? Because I know that the Red Cross has a field hospital in Rafa.
00:06And how is that field hospital doing? What's the situation there? What are they dealing with?
00:12So the field hospital over the past week has seen an unprecedented number of patients.
00:19We've never seen these numbers before.
00:21Just this week alone, so since May 27th, the field hospital has responded to at least five mass casualty incidents.
00:30Yesterday, the field hospital admitted more than 180 patients.
00:3519 of them were declared dead on arrival. Eight others died of wounds shortly after.
00:42This is the largest influx of patients from a single incident since the field hospital was established in May 2024.
00:49These numbers are huge. To put it in context, the field hospital has 60 beds.
00:56So an influx of 180 plus patients is more than double the capacity of the hospital.
01:02That means there's not a single surface in the hospital that's not being used.
01:06Every bench, every chair, every stretcher is being used by a patient.
01:12Hospital staff are working tirelessly just to be able to respond to all of these needs.
01:18But there's also a strain on medical supplies because, as we know, for 11 weeks, no aid had entered Gaza,
01:28which means that existing stocks of medical supplies dwindled.
01:32And with the little aid that has come in, it's still going to take so much more time to shore up these stocks.
01:37And if the hospital continues to face repeated mass casualty incidents, the amount of existing stock is really at threat.
01:47急けれども, as we know, we've got to lay down
