‘I Have Seen the Unthinkable, the Inhumane’: Dr Mimi Syed’s Testimony at Gaza Tribunal

By Middle East Eye

“The children of Gaza, with their eyes wide open and full of innocence, have been subjected to horrors that no child should ever face. I have seen them murdered, starved and denied the most basic of human rights.”

Giving her testimony at the Gaza Tribunal in Sarajevo, US emergency medicine physician Dr Mimi Syed recounts her experience volunteering in Gaza hospitals describing the “deplorable conditions manufactured deliberately by the Israeli government” causing “completely preventable” deaths. One of these cases included a mother with a breast tumor “so vascularized” she bled out and died in front of her three small children. Dr Syed says that despite the tumor being curable “with timely chemotherapy and surgery”, the Israeli military denied her medical evacuation four times.
