Anwar Abu Holy sits in a plastic lawn chair by his home in Al Brij Camp in Gaza and likes to tell stories. He promises this story is true.
Abu Holy is an ambulance driver and this was his worst year.
“I have never seen anything like the injuries this summer”
Like many Palestinians Abu Holy is sure the Israelis are using a mysterious and deadly new weapon against the Palestinians.
Abu Holy often raced to the front line when Palestinian militants and Israeli soldiers clashed. He would be one of the first on the scene after an Israeli missile zeroed in on a Palestinian militant’s home. He would sift through the rubble looking for victims.
In July he started seeing people with odd burns, mutilated limbs and he rarely saw shrapnel. Most unusual, he says, were little dark spots on the skin.
“Like this”, he says lifting his right pant leg and revealing a stump. Most of his leg is gone and on his upper thigh, his hands and his right leg are hundreds of small black spots.
