The cease-fire is over, but not before it offered a glimpse of the war’s horrors to Palestinians in Gaza and people around the world.

As residents used the fragile truce to find aid, search for loved ones under the rubble, and head home to survey the destruction, a particularly disturbing scene emerged.

Seen in a video that moves through the abandoned and disarrayed hallways of the pediatric intensive care unit at Al-Nasr Children’s Hospital in northern Gaza were several babies whose unattended bodies lay on separate hospital beds. A blurred version of the video was shared widely on social media this week, a grim and graphic contrast to other scenes of families reunited as hostages and prisoners were freed.

In a piece he reported, Mohammed Baalousha, a journalist with the Emirati TV channel Al-Mashhad, said he found the decomposing infants when he entered the pediatric ICU in the health facility in Gaza City. The hospital’s staff and critically ill patients were forced to evacuate in early November as the Israeli military focused its ground assault on the city, with hospitals under fire.

NBC News obtained raw footage from the channel and has reviewed its contents.

      Something not catering to your sensibilities doesn’t translate to “inappropriate”. There’s clear criticism in that comment. Do you want to deny them to voice criticism?

        Stop playing interference. This is just mocking victims of Israel’s wildly excessive bombing and other destruction. This article is talking about newborns who likely suffered and died as no one was able to take care of them. And the dumbass asks “bUT DiD thEY dENoUnCE hAmAS?!!1?” like it’s some sort of gotcha.
