NEW: Dr. @FerozeSidhwa to the UN Security Council: “My patients were six-year-olds with shrapnel in their heart and bullets in their brains. And pregnant women whose pelvises had been obliterated and their fetuses cut in two while still in the womb.” The U.S. emergency physician, who spent five weeks recently volunteering at Gaza’s Nasser Hospital, told the Council that Israel is carrying out the deliberate destruction of the enclave’s healthcare system. “Mothers sheltering in the hospital cooked bread on hotplates in the emergency department during mass casualty events,” Sidhwa recalled, “as we dealt with the rain of fire and death falling around us everywhere.” “Participating in it or not, allowing it to happen is a choice,” he said. “This is a deliberate denial of conditions necessary for life: food, shelter, water, and medicine. Preventing genocide means refusing to normalize these atrocities.”
