The ongoing crisis in Gaza demands immediate attention from the medical community. Healthcare professionals must leverage their voices to advocate for those suffering in this conflict. During my 22 days in Gaza, I witnessed a harrowing reality filled with death and destruction. Yet, amidst this chaos, I also saw incredible courage, compassion, and dedication from the local healthcare workers. Their tireless efforts highlight the urgent need for international support and awareness.
Medical professionals hold a unique position. They can influence public opinion and policy decisions. By speaking out, they can draw attention to the humanitarian crisis and push for necessary changes. This is a critical time for advocacy. We must unite to ensure that the voices of those in Gaza are heard loud and clear.
