☆ In Gaza, We Can’t Justify This Much Suffering - The New York Times
  + stars: | 2024-02-03 | by ( Nicholas Kristof | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
There’s a whip-smart 10-year-old girl in Gaza who speaks good English, displays a radiant smile and seemed to have a bright future. Instead, she’s lying in a hospital bed with a badly infected wound in her thigh from a bomb blast. “She was supposed to be in Japan,” said Dr. Samer Attar, an orthopedic surgeon who cared for the girl and told me about her. Dr. Attar said the girl needed an amputation at the hip to save her life. Her dad, struggling to come to terms with how his and his daughter’s lives have collapsed, is resisting for now.

☆ Opinion | Why I Treat the Wounded Far From Home

My Syrian heritage inspired me to make my first trip to a war zone, to Aleppo in 2013. I have written often about my experiences in Syria and Ukraine. In Syria I learned how to manage war wounds in a battle zone with few supplies. The work is meaningful, but it is dangerous and can take a heavy psychic toll, I warn them. You operate with the understanding that you may find yourself dead or wounded next to the people you are trying to help.
