Premature babies evacuated from Gaza hospital

Thirty-one premature Palestinian babies have been evacuated from Gaza City's al-Shifa hospital. The babies have been taken to an Emirati hospital in the southern town of Rafah, close to the Egyptian border. A spokesperson for the Palestinian Red Crescent Society explains to Newshour how the delicate evacuation was completed.
