Yeah, sure... Of course.
Of those 11,000 people, who knows how many died a slow and painful death because, since the beginning of the "war"* Israel has continued to destroy these life-saving equipment.
The video describes efforts to rescue 15 people - 12 children - from one family that had to be abandoned. The cries of the children were heard for days as people tried to save them with sledgehammers, trowels and rope - until the cries stopped.
Just think about that.
