Chicago, August 22 (RHC)-- U.S. doctors who treated patients in Gaza held a press conference in Chicago during the Democratic National Convnention to shine a light on the ongoing atrocities inflicted by Israel’s U.S.-backed war.
Pediatrician Dr. Ahmad Yousaf told reporters: “She had burns that covered over 70% of her surface area, which is a death sentence in an environment where you can’t find gauze and there isn’t clean water and there aren’t antibiotics. We all knew what this meant on the ground in the trauma bay the first minutes we met her: She was going to die there, and her baby would die there. And there was nothing we were going to be able to do about it, because the Israeli government, the IDF, had made it impossible to care for people to the extent which they deserve. Every human being deserves the right to medical aid in that situation. She was no fighter. He was a pregnant woman who was sitting in her home when a bomb dropped on her head."
