Israelis reach out to Gazan mother in Ashkelon following TV report
By Haaretz Staff and Channel 10
Tags: Erez Crossing, Israel 
Haaretz.com/Channel 10 daily feature for March 30, 2008.

A television report last week on Iman, a Gazan woman who give birth to twins in Israel, resulted in a rare show of cross-border humanism amidst bitter violence.

While Iman gave birth several weeks ago, fierce fighting was taking place between Hamas and the Israel Defense Forces in Gaza, and rocket fire from the Strip reached the grounds of the Ashkelon hospital where she was hospitalized.

After a television report on Iman, the Barzilai Medical Center became swamped by hundreds of offers from Israeli citizens who wanted to help.
