In a harrowing account, British surgeon Victoria Rose shares her experiences from her latest humanitarian mission in Gaza amid ongoing bombardments. Operating at Nasser Hospital, she faced unprecedented levels of trauma care, performing surgeries on multiple patients daily, with an alarming number stemming from the violence. Unlike her London practice, where she might see only three patients per day, her shifts frequently involved many more, including heartbreaking cases like that of 11-year-old Adam al-Najjar, who lost his family in an airstrike. Rose vividly describes the relentless situation, advocating for attention to the humanitarian crisis.
"It's operating nonstop in Gaza," she said, highlighting the overwhelming demands faced by medical professionals as they respond to continuous airstrikes and casualties.
Victoria Rose describes the emotional toll of treating deeply injured children, emphasizing the trauma inflicted not just on individuals but their families and communities.
