Sharif Mustafa, a Libyan youth who is in his 30s, lies in the ICU at Al-Takhasusi Hospital after his hand was amputated and fragments filled his chest during the bombing of Misrata that was carried out by Muammar Gaddafi’s forces.

Sharif said, "I am not a warrior, I was injured defending my family as Gaddafi forces headed to our house in Misrata."

Osama Al-Shtewi, from Banghazi, rests next to him; he received two bullets in his abdomen and another one under his backbone. Shtewi said, "Libya is under a horrific bombardment. Old men, women, and children are being brutally killed."

Each and every injured Libyan  man who has arrived in Jordan has a different story to tell, but they all agree on the brutality of the killings. Jordanian hospitals treat around 53 injured Libyans. All of them came via the air bridge which His Majesty the King ordered for the delivery of support and humanitarian aid for the Libyan people.

AmmanNet met with some of them to learn more about their suffering. Mohammad Mustafa said that nothing and no one is immune to Gaddafi’s brutality, not the trees nor the animals. He described  the governmental forces operations as brutal and savage.

Despite the pain they all are going through, they are still smiling and hoping for a brighter future in their country. Haydar said, "We are looking for the departure of Muammar Gaddafi’s forces as soon as possible for the sake of our children, who we wish to have a better future than the one we had." Haydar then looked at his wounds and added, "We have God by our side."

Ten of the 53 wounded were transferred to the Royal Medical Services in order to undergo surgery, according to Al-Takhasusi Hospital Manager Dr. Fawzi Hammouri.

Hammouri told AmmanNet that the Jordanian medical team was the first to arrive in Banghazi to treat the wounded Libyan people and added that the team is still doing its job there. The team consists of 11 doctors and nurses of various specialities.

The specialists who went to Banghazi, according to Hammouri, included a plastic surgeon, a general surgeon, ICU specialists, and anaesthesia consultants.

Dr. Mohammad Azzouqa, the ICU head at the hospital, said that the patients are getting better, stating that the injuries varied from multiple breaks to burns.

A number of Jordanian politicians, activists, and union workers have formed a committee to support the Libyan people by offering them media coverage that will represent their  cause and lead to them obtaining their wanted freedom. It also aims at clarifying the image of what is taking place in Libya for local, Arab, and international society.

This committee, according to its president Khaled Abu Al-Kheir, aims at urging the Jordanian people, civil association societies, and unions to support the Libyan people and offer them encouragement, no matter what the cost.
