In the midst of a 7.1 magnitude earthquake in China’s Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, a team of doctors at Xinjiang Alar Hospital continued with a brain surgery. The earthquake, centered in the Wushi district near the Kyrgyzstan border, shook the operating room. Brain Surgeon An Shufang revealed that they performed an emergency craniotomy on a critically ill patient during the quake, maintaining focus on completing the surgery despite the strong tremors. The patient is now stable, undergoing further treatment in intensive care. The entire incident was captured on the operating room’s security camera.
Gazans Celebrate Ceasefire Between Israel and Hamas
Palestinians celebrated the ceasefire agreement reached between Israel and Hamas after indirect talks in Egypt, marking the first step of a broader peace plan involving hostage exchanges and Israeli troop withdrawals. Crowds, including children displaced by Israeli attacks, gathered around Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Hospital to celebrate the end of the fighting. Residents in Maghazi Refugee Camp expressed hopes for rebuilding Gaza and establishing a Palestinian state. “Thank God, the war is over. Our homes were destroyed, and our children killed. We thank everyone who helped end this war,” said Yasser Abu Hein. Others shared optimism that Gaza would “return better than before.”
Israel confirmed that the ceasefire would begin following a cabinet vote later in the day.
