Cancer patient dies after Israel entry refusal - 19 Nov 07

  • 12 years ago
A 21-year old cancer patient in Gaza who had been seeking vital medical treatment in Israel, has died.

Na'el al Kurdi is one of dozens of people being prevented by Israel from using the Beit Hanoun crossing for apparent security reasons.

Worse still, other patients may now be at risk, as medicines in Gaza run out and Israel remains defiant.
