An unidentified Filipino caregiver was also reportedly injured in the attack of Palestinian Hamas militants in Israel.
Amie Afable, who works at an agency for Filipino caregivers in Israel, said she recently visited a male caregiver at a hospital in Tel Aviv, who was shot in the shoulder.
“Dinala ko pa yung alaga ko sa sala eh. Kasi nasa higaan, umaga ‘yun eh. Kasi ayaw niya talaga. Ilang beses ako, paulit-ulit, ayaw niya. Oo. Sabi noong anak, kung ayaw niya pumasok, hayaan mo nalang siya diyan, kung ano ang mangyari, takbo ka,” he added. “Talagang nakakaawa ang kalagayan niya. Wala siyang nailigtas na kahit ano. Lahat nasunog doon sa apartment niya. Nag-decide ako na dalhan siya ng damit, kaunting pagkain,” Afable said.
