Dear Jennifer,The Apaches are shelling us right now, many many fragments and parts of injured people everywhere in the area, I wasn't able to identify the body of my relative who get killed, they brought him to the hospital as parts and fragments, I can't believe how hani arrived like this, can't can't really can't, why they shell him with a group of children, why, I don't know why god why is this!! Hundreds of houses are demolishing now. A spanish radio called me and they were surprised to hear the yells of the injured people and the Apaches shelling the houses, and the noises of the bulldozers and people asking for help.. So many parts of bodies are under the rubble of the houses.
Oh, this journalist needs his laptop computer now, it has only 18% electricity, he needs it now, as he lent it to me for 10 minutes to write these two e-mails, as the elctrcity is off and so many many injured and killed people here.. Still the doctors can't identify and collect the flesh parts of the injured and killed people.. They can't do anything at the moment. I'm exhusted and tired now, I'm faint, yes the soldiers targeted and shoot towards the camera, I take pictures for some parts and flesh spread in the ground here.. They are shelling everyone here, I'm in bad need now for protective bullet vest, I need to protect my body now from those bullets, I need a protective vest and it's not found here, I used to use one of of the vests of my friends, he is wearing it now.. Not so many journalists to cover the massacres, but I don't know even that camera didn't take the picture that my eye wants to take, it's a poor camera and slow.. I don't know, I must find a way to get the vest cause I'm really in bad need, ohh, shelllllllinnngs shelling shellllling now now.
They are shelling us more from the Apaches and F-16's, many injured and killed people, the ambulances can't reach the area, I will deliver that computer for that journalist, cause it's ringing lack of batteries, please please and for the sake of those children do tell the people about what is going on. Tell them about the parts of the bodies here.. Well, more rockets now, I must leave now to the entrance of the hospital to report things here.
