Please Save Us From This Horror. By Hussam Abu Safyia At Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza, we are no strangers to treating victims of airstrikes over the years. As I write this, the hospital is on the precipice of true disaster. We are down to the last gallons of fuel necessary to run the electric generators, despite our most stringent efforts to ration it since the start of hostilities. When the generators fall silent, we will be relegated to practicing medieval-level medicine. Doctors are no strangers to tragedy or death and are trained to steel themselves against it, but the pressure we've been under these past few weeks is beyond any training. One of my colleagues lost his father and brother to an airstrike in the first week of the fighting; another saw his dead son wheeled in by an emergency crew. At a professional level, a personal level and most fundamentally a human level, the people of Gaza and the medics who care for them are at a breaking point. It may be hard to understand why any of us are still at the hospital. The answer is hope. There's a resilience and tenacity at the heart of the human experience that's stronger than any horrors men can inflict on one another. Through that hope, we make an urgent plea to the rest of the world to send more aid into Gaza. We hope that people will read our story and share in our desires: for a cease-fire, for a full opening of border crossings so that the wounded and sick may leave and lifesaving supplies can reach the tired, hungry and the displaced. We need the world's help to sustain these hopes and bring this senseless violence to an end. 【词汇过关】 请写出下面文单词在文章中的中文意思。 1.pediatrician英 [ˌpiːdiəˈtrɪʃn] 美 [ˌpiːd
