Dogs are looked down upon in Palestinian culture, so it’s very rare to see a dog in that area.
"This is uncommon in Gaza. In general, there are almost no animals there. We saw cats here and there, but no dogs. He was really thin and weak and looked in bad shape. We let him drink and rest…
At one point, during the evacuation of a soldier, we seized the chance to also take the dog out of Gaza. When a tank arrived for the evacuation, we requested to include the dog. We arranged a travel bag for him, placed the dog inside with his head sticking out, and transported him to Israel."
The family of the medic who told the story has adopted the dog. He’s now living happily in Israel and is well cared for.
