Video Description (from Youtube)
When the Israeli army bombs schools, hospitals or apartments in Gaza, it’s the Civil Defense crew that rushes in to pull people out from the rubble. Since Israel has blocked rescue equipment from entering the Gaza, rescue teams use simple tools and their bare hands to pull people, including children, from the ruins.
Before the rescue teams enter the bombed sites, they coordinate with the Israeli military to make sure they won’t be bombed too. But Israel often targets the same location many times, leading to even more civilian casualties. Since the beginning of the genocide, at least 139 Civil Defense workers have been killed by Israel.
Filmmaker Bisan Owda follows the rescuers through some of the war’s darkest days. She calls them Gaza’s heroes – the first line of defense that is standing up to Israel’s attacks When an Israeli strike ignites a deadly fire at a school shelter killing some of Bisan's relatives, it is the Civil Defense who rush in to try to save them.
