Healthcare workers in Gaza are risking their lives daily, exemplifying true heroism. Individuals like Ali demonstrate exceptional courage, remaining by the side of those in need during airstrikes. The work of Palestinian healthcare workers, who have sustained their efforts for over 650 days under siege, illustrates profound commitment. Young patients like Nayla, suffering from devastating injuries and loss, highlight the ongoing struggles faced by children in these conflict zones. Rationing of medical supplies intensifies these challenges, showcasing the desperate conditions under which healthcare is delivered.
Seldom in history have healthcare workers been called upon to risk their lives simply by reporting for duty, especially in conflict zones like Gaza.
Heroism belongs to those who don't have the option to leave: the Palestinian healthcare and humanitarian workers who have reported for duty every single day for 650 days under siege.
The children we care for carry their own brand of heroism, exemplified by Nayla, a 10-year-old girl who fought against overwhelming odds after her limbs were shattered.
Working alongside Palestinian healthcare workers during a siege has been the greatest honor of my life, contrasting the safety enjoyed by internationally mobile staff.
