Talal Taha and his team at the al-Shifa Hospital, Gaza Citys largest, received an emergency call on Saturday evening and leaped into action. Earlier that day, Israel had begun pummelling the sealed-off Gaza Strip following a stunning attack by armed Palestinian group Hamas on Israeli territory.
Three vehicles headed to a location in the vicinity of the citys eastern cemetery. The team followed the sound of cries for help as the city was enveloped in darkness.
