Gaza Strip: fighter roars cause miscarriage

Gaza, Gaza Strip - The spokesman of Shifa Hospital says that

According to Doctor Mohammed Hassanin, public relations officer in Gaza City’s Shifa Hospital, miscarriage cases are sensibly increasing in the Strip because of continuous low-altitude flights by Israeli fighters and because of the consequent scare for violent roars ("Sound bombs"). 17 Palestinian women suffered from miscarriage and 78 gave birth prematurely, according to the medical source.
