9:04 am
you updated on this story as we learn more here and online at abc seven news.com. also developing in southern california, police have cleared pro-palestinian encampments on usc's campus. the campus was reportedly shut down and more than 100 officers in riot gear surrounded the encampment. and a post on x, the university said in part, quote, if you are in the center of campus, please leave people who don't leave will be arrested. reports say no arrests were made. the university announced a few hours later that the encampment has been cleared. this comes after the school issued a warning saying the encampment violates school policy and must come down. these protests have highlighted the difficulties of the war in gaza. today, u.s. and arab leaders are continuing ceasefire negotiations between hamas and israel. but there is growing uncertainty as israel's prime minister says his country is only prepared to pause the war, not end it. meanwhile, the
9:05 am
threat of a ground invasion looms over the southern gaza city of rafah. a south bay doctor recently returned from a five week medical mission to rafah. he spoke about his firsthand experience from the front lines. abc seven news reporter anser hassan was there, but we must warn you, this story contains gruesome details of war . >> the destruction is evident. the death toll reported at over 34,000 people. but doctor mohammed subhi says those stats don't capture the reality on the ground in gaza. what that means for a child who just lost their entire family in a bombing and is the only surviving family member who's also lost a limb? and what does that mean for them, physically speaking and mentally speaking? doctor mohammed subhi addressed a capacity crowd at a church in walnut creek about his recent five week medical mission to gaza at times sharing graphic images and details of the work he did at a makeshift field hospital in rafah. it was set up to help 50 people a day.
9:06 am
instead, he says, they treated more than 1000 people daily. you don't know if you're going to have antibiotics. definitely didn't have anesthetics. we just had ketamine, which is a dissociative medicine that dissociates your mind from your body. and we were doing major surgeries opening chests, abdomens, resecting intestines. doctor subhi works at two south bay hospitals. since his return, he's also been meeting with elected officials. most recently in washington, dc, to give a firsthand account of the war. he says the narrative that this war is just against hamas militants didn't match what he experienced . not once did i see a combatant you think about like soldier fighting another soldier, and there's crossfire and civilians. unfortunately are hit by the crossfire. all of my patients were civilians that came to me, shot deliberately. saturday's event also featured the exhibit the soul of my soul, biographies and photos of children killed in gaza. >> if they're in gaza, if
9:07 am
they're here in america, wherever they are, their children at the end of the day, and they deserve to be protected. >> doctor suubi, a palestinian refugee himself, says he's hopeful that the current round of cease fire negotiated between israel and hamas will lead to a breakthrough. but he also hopes part of that includes more accountability and an end to the humanitarian blockade, which is keeping aid out of gaza. 196 humanitarian aid workers were killed, and we don't hear about that. that tells me those actions speak louder than the words that we're hearing, i just pray and hope for a better tomorrow, not only for the palestinians, but for the world in general. in walnut creek. anser hassan abc seven news. >> today is holocaust remembrance day. this year's observation carries a heavier weight than usual for many jews around the world. it is the first to take place since hamas fighters invaded israel on october 7th, the deadliest attack on jews since the holocaust. israel's main event
