00:18 "Of course, we didn't sleep.
00:19 The shelling and clashes are still going on.
00:20 Here are the smoke bombs.
00:21 This is the black cloud from the launch of the bombs.
00:22 Now the tanks are creating a medical hospital.
00:29 God forbid.
00:30 People were singing, but no one was listening.
00:36 No one could go and help them.
00:42 There are many martyrs in the hospital's hospital area.
00:48 But unfortunately, the army is asking people not to leave their homes.
00:55 No one can go down because the tanks are right below us."

01:28 compound engaged in gunfights as well as weapons and money it said it found in the hospital.
