CNN —When I speak to Dr. Izzeldin Abuelaish on the phone, his voice is heavy with jetlag and grief.
Then on January 16, he called his friend and Channel 10 reporter Shlomi Eldar, who put his message on speaker phone, live on TV.
Dr. Izzeldin Abuelaish: There is nothing called “life” there.
I was supposed to be interviewed live by Israeli TV about the situation in the Gaza Strip.
CNN: Having worked in Palestinian hospitals throughout your career, paint a picture of the challenges they will be facing now.
