LOST CONTACT WITH IONTERNATIONALS IN RAMALLAH HOSPITAL (ENGLISH

UPDATE: RAMALLAH 1300
We seem to have now lost contact with the doctors and internationals in the area. Two other observers just tried to get near the hospital and saw over 50 soldiers but could not get close enough to contact the civilians.


- Volunteer medic Netta Golan is riding with ambulances in the Ramallah Tahta (lower) area. She helped retrieve the two bodies that international civilians saw brought into Ramallah hospital earlier. She says that there are two more bodies that they cannot get to.


- She observed soldiers conducting house to house searches and for people who did not open their doors they were broken down and she saw soldiers entering firing upon Palestinian civilians.


- Soldiers are holding Palestinian men on their knees and an Arab source (who must remain unidentified) says that the men are being divided into two groups: one group to be arrested and one group that is being summarily executed.
