US, UK Doctors in Washington to Warn of “Israel’s” Appalling Atrocities in Gaza
A delegation of American and British doctors is in Washington DC to tell the Biden administration the “Israeli” military is systematically destroying Gaza’s health infrastructure in order to drive Palestinians out of their homes. | The doctors, who have recently returned from volunteering at Gaza’s besieged hospitals, are expected to meet White House officials and senior members of Congress this week to warn that pledges of increased aid to Palestinians under bombardment are largely meaningless without an immediate ceasefire to allow safe distribution of food and the revival of healthcare services. ● Professor Nick Maynard, the former director for cancer services at Oxford University who worked at the al-Aqsa hospital in central Gaza at the beginning of the year, accused the “Israeli” army of “appalling atrocities”. “The ‘Israeli’ are systematically targeting healthcare facilities, healthcare personnel and really dismantling the whole healthcare system,” he said.
