Gaza Children's Mental Health Crisis: Doctor's Testimony Rocks UN
Gaza Crisis: Doctor Recounts Heartbreaking Testimony at UN Security Council A harrowing account of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza was delivered to the UN Security Council, as an American doctor detailed the devastating psychological impact on children. The doctor described a situation where 'nearly half of Gaza's children are suicidal,' highlighting the profound trauma inflicted by the ongoing conflict. He spoke of children asking, 'Why didn't I die with my sister, my mother, my father?' illustrating the unbearable grief and loss experienced by young people. The doctor's testimony underscored the systematic dismantling of Gaza's healthcare system, leaving children and families without adequate support. His words paint a grim picture of a generation scarred by violence and despair, highlighting the urgent need for international intervention and humanitarian aid. The UN Security Council's response to this emotional appeal will be closely watched by the international community.
