I stayed in touch with a British doctor volunteering in one of Gaza's few functioning hospitals. He sent me clips of his time at al-Aqsa Hospital - and I caught up with him when he came back to the UK. You can watch our report for @BBCNews here: (1/2) @maynard_nick

A UN enquiry has concluded in a harrowing report released today that Israel is committing #genocide in #Gaza by deliberately targeting children, adding to overwhelming evidence of systematic attacks on journalists and medical staff. The findings are compelling — a British doctor, Nizam Mamode, recently returned from Gaza corroborates the conclusion, stressing the importance of medical eyewitnesses given Israel’s killing of Palestinian journalists and banning of foreign press. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c0jy…

Yesterday I caught up with a contact to hear about his time in Gaza this month. Our conversation came just as the UN inquiry said Israel 'committing genocide in Gaza by deliberately targeting children' - which Israel denies - but I asked Dr Mamode to tell us what he saw himself
"The children you operated on, what did they tell you these quadcopters did?" Nizam Mamode "One child who was 7, who described.. a bomb was dropped, he was knocked over by the blast.. he heard a drone above him, turned round, then it fired on him. We have many reports like that"

99 health workers have signed a letter to @POTUS claiming that whilst in Gaza every one of them treated children who were shot in the head or chest. @Ammar_Darwish1 sent me this x-ray of a four-year-old girl he treated at Nasser hospital with @MedicalAidPal

‘These kids could be vaccinated against polio in the morning and then be received as casualties of bombardment by the evening’ I asked @Ammar_Darwish1 to record a video diary whilst working in Gaza - you can watch it here: youtube.com/watch?v=f7gyqKEh…
