A BBC reporter interviews a foreign surgeon at the Al Shifa hospital in Gaza about his observations of the admissions to the hospital
(at 1.40 min of the 3.30 min report)
In summary, the surgeon's statements are as follows;
1. "Among the hundreds of people admitted to the hospital we have only seen 2 fighters"
2. "The statistics are clear - amongst the 2400-2500 injured 45% are women and children"
3. "Most of the injured are women, children and male civilians"
4. "Among those killed 25% are either women or children"
5. "As of this morning there were a total of 801 children either killed or injured of which 101 children have been killed"

Doctors at Gaza City's Shifa Hospital, after years of bloody conflict, are used to dealing with large numbers of injured people streaming into their emergency room. But never have they seen such a tidal wave of casualties flood the hospital as now, resulting from Israel's ongoing Operation "Cast Lead."
