A doctor's account of quadcopter attacks on civilians and medical staff in Gaza.

• A surgeon was shot in the chest by a remote-controlled drone while preparing an operating room early in the morning; he survived.
• Drones hovered over tents in Al-Mawasi and sprayed gunfire onto displaced people sheltering inside.
• One victim was a woman three months pregnant who survived a gunshot wound; the bullet missed her womb by a few centimeters, and the baby lived.
• The attacks point to drones being used against hospitals and civilian camps, not just fighters.

Outlook: As long as the Gaza war continues, drone strikes on hospitals and civilian shelters are likely to keep killing and wounding non-combatants.
