Channel 4 News has obtained CCTV footage from inside the Aleppo hospital that was bombed this week. It shows the last paediatrician to stay in the war-torn city, Dr. Muhammad Maaz, just moments before the fatal attack. Footage has emerged of the moment before Al Quds hospital in Aleppo was bombed, killing Dr. Maaz along with at least 50 people killed including staff and patients.
Dr Muhammad Waseem Maaz, who has been described as the area’s most qualified paediatrician, can be seen on the footage seconds before the Medicines Sans Frontier-backed hospital was hit by air strikes from government forces.
The footage shows Dr Maaz as he prepares to begin a night shift on the emergency ward on 27 April. He can be seen on film leaving the intensive care unit and walking downstairs towards the emergency ward, speaking with a colleague in the corridor and disappearing from the CCTV seconds before the deadly blast.
