Palestinians are being intentionally massacred, starved, and stripped of everything needed to sustain human life. There are no words that can adequately convey the pain and depravity of this aggression. Those who cannot be moved by the pictures of dismembered and charred corpses will not be moved by some words. What sort of world have we descended into, asks Dr. Tanya Haj Hassan.

“On the eve of World Children’s Day last week, the United States vetoed for the fifth time a UN Security Council resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza. In the words of the Palestinian ambassador to the UN Majed Bamya “There is no justification for vetoing a resolution trying to stop atrocities.” There is NO justification.”

Paediatric intensive care doctor, Dr. Tanya Haj Hassan, Medical Practitioner at Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) Charity shares her personal account of working with injured and dying children and their families in Gaza. “You cannot witness what’s going on in Gaza and not return enraged and determined to stop it”.
