Dr Amira al-Assouli was in Nasser hospital's maternity building when she heard a man screaming the shahada, the Islamic declaration of faith, right below her window.

"There's an injured man," people began shouting.

By the time she raced down the stairs and reached him, he was dead.

Ibrahim Salama had also heard the screams. He was staying in a shack on the hospital grounds and came out to see what was happening.
