Two young sisters have been rescued from under the rubble of a poultry hatchery that was targeted in an Israeli tank shelling four days ago, Al Jazeera reports.
Dozens of displaced people were staying at the hatchery in the central town of Deir al-Balah after they were forced to flee their homes in northern Gaza.
“I woke up and felt something hurt, so I raised my hands and found a wall above me, and from the many pains I went back to sleep,” Maria Abu Safi said, adding that there were about 72 adults and 62 children sheltering in the hatchery.
She heard her younger sister Lana screaming in pain, her feet stuck under a pile of boxes and stones.
“We stayed four days under the rubble, with no food or drink,” Maria said. “I was trying to get out, but there were many stones above us,” she said.
