Archivist Notes On This Video

Translation of caption::

"How do we do our press coverage of bombings at night? And what does it feel like?

Paramedics, civil defense and journalists from the North are at the heart of the event, each doing their part

Documenting the targeting of a kindergarten in the middle of Jabalia camp and the miraculous survival of internally displaced people and neighbors"


Translation:

"Islam is documenting We are in Jabalia where a few moments ago, an Israeli hit this area. Ambulances are mobilized but we have not been able to locate the targeted place yet."

Islam is running to the targeted place along with other people.

"We have reached the targeted area in Block 6, Jabalia. People are saying a house within these alleys was struck. It turns out it's a kidergarten that's been targeted. This is an example of daily night strikes the occupation carries out against the homes of Palestinians everywhere. Every day there is a number of such houses being hit by night. This large hole is result of the strike. The Civil Defense and Emergency Services crews are at work. The houses here are right next to each other. Over there is a bedroom."

A neighbor steps in to say: "Those are the neighbors of this house, and the ones on the other side too. Here in Jabalia the houses are built very close to each other. Thank God we escaped a massacre.'

"People here are saying that there could have been a massacre here. If the wall of the neighboring house had collapsed, it would have been caused a catastrophe."

Islam asks a paramedic about the casualties, and he's told there's been thankfully only one injured person despite the area being inhabited. "People were asleep in the houses next door but by the will and grace of Allah none of them got hurt."

Civil defense statement :

“The occupation targeted Al-Aliya kindergarten and a neighboring house of the Al-Ashqar family in Block 6 of Jabalia camp, the "Al-Trans" area. Our crews are transporting a number of injuries." (So far, 3)”

Journalist Islam Bader writes

"How do we cover the bombing at night? How is the atmosphere? Paramedics, civil defense and journalists of the north are at the heart of the event, each doing his part - documenting the targeting of a kindergarten in the middle of Jabalia camp and the miraculous survival of the displaced people inside it and the neighbors."

Reporting of Anas Al Sharif

"The night strikes continue. Moments ago, this house on al-Yafawiyya street was bombed, creating this wide hole. Civil Defense crews are searching for any victims. This has become a daily scene. Every day and every night, Israeli strikes target the homes of civilians." Witness: *"By the grace of Allah we survived what could have been a massacre in Jabalia, and everyone knows what Jabalia refugee camp represents. Our message to the world and to the Israeli enemy is that we will remain here no matter what, either dignified on the land, or as bones beneath it.
