Pediatric Intensive Care Dr. Tanya Haj Hassan, who volunteered in Gaza, shared accounts of the horrors she witnessed in Gaza’s hospitals before the UN.
Haj Hassan said, “Spend just five minutes in a hospital there and it will become painfully clear that Palestinians are being intentionally massacred, starved, and stripped of everything needed to sustain human life.”
She recalled the story of “13-year-old Amir, who sustained severe neck trauma and kept calling for his sister,” yet “he didn’t recognize that she was the girl in the bed next to him because she had been burned beyond recognition.”
Dr. Tanya Haj-Hassan dared the participants before her to “take a second and imagine all of the children that I just spoke about, their mothers, their fathers, desperately seeking medical care and searching for hope… Then the electricity cuts out. The entrance to the hospital is struck by a missile.”
