    Can you even imagine the stress of that?

    Not just being a doctor having people’s lives depend on your competence. But also in an active genocide, where you’re probably starving and you could be blown up by a bomb at any minute or have the idf burst through the doors and shoot you.

    It’s literally the most stressful job operating under the most stressful possible conditions.

    Each one of these people should, no matter the result of this “conflict” be commemorated as heros, not just in Palestine but internationally.
