Being separated sucks, but the kids are safer now than she is.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Hanan’s pregnancy was considered high risk, so Israel allowed her to leave Gaza briefly in August to give birth at the Makassed Hospital in East Jerusalem.

The babies were ready to be discharged shortly before Hamas attacked on Oct. 7, and Hanan was making plans to travel back to pick up her daughters in person.

The same day, NBC News’ crew in Gaza spoke with the family in the southern city of Khan Younis, where the couple showed baby clothing they had bought for their daughters before the war — a little trove of delayed happiness: colorful socks and matching purple onesies with strawberries stitched onto their collars.

Before the conflict, Israel allowed residents of the Gaza Strip to apply for humanitarian entry permits for certain medical reasons, such as lifesaving treatment unavailable in the enclave, but the war has upended such processes.

Dr. Hatem Khamash, head of the neonatal unit at the Makassed Hospital in East Jerusalem, said there is currently no safe place in Gaza, and the girls’ chances of survival under bombardment and without proper medical care or clean water are slim.

He explained that staff members are trying to keep the Beyouqs up to date on the girls’ condition and send them pictures, but intermittent internet connection and phone service in Gaza mean those updates are few and far between.

Not getting into the arguments, but just came to say… “D’AWWWWWW!”
