Gaza's Children's Plea: A Race Against Time for Life-Saving Treatment

Gaza's Children in Urgent Need of Evacuation: A UK Charity's Plea The ongoing conflict in Gaza has left many children severely injured and in desperate need of medical care. This report focuses on two cases: three-year-old Haitham, who suffered severe burns in an Israeli airstrike, and one-year-old Karam, afflicted with Hirschsprung's disease. Their families are pleading for assistance. "He has severe burns. Almost 50% of his body is burned and internal bleeding," said Haitham's grandfather, Hatem Karara, in a heartbreaking interview. The situation is dire, with limited medical resources in Gaza. A British surgeon, Dr. Victoria Rose, working in Gaza, adds, "We don't have the resources to look after him. We are running out of all sorts of medical equipment here. It's mass casualties; it's utter carnage." She advocates for immediate evacuation. A UK charity, Project Pure Hope, successfully evacuated other children to the UK for treatment, all privately funded. They are now petitioning the government to allow Haitham and Karam to receive the life-saving care they desperately need.
