“This is a human liver, a liver,” Akram Bayoumi said as he picked up a limp, charred scrap of flesh from the wreckage of an Israeli airstrike on Nuseirat, in central Gaza.
The overnight strike on a residential block leveled homes, reduced streets to rubble, and killed at least 36 people, tearing some of them apart. “The sunrise came at night,” he said, referring to the flash of Thursday’s explosion.
