Sitta said bodies were on the ground, as they avoided Israeli tanks by taking different roads to reach Nuseirat Refugee Camp in central Gaza during a five-hour journey on foot. "Leaving 500 wounded, knowing that there's nothing left for you to be able to do for them, it's just the most heartbreaking thing I ever had to do."
