Welcome to Palestine Film Night at the Bromley by Bow Centre
Join us for a screening of Gaza: Doctors Under Attack followed by a panel discussion with Dr Khaled Dawas (Consultant Surgeon (UCLH) & Hon Associate Professor (UCL), who's been on emergency medical missions to Gaza and other speakers. Chaired by Dr Manal Massalha: Sociologist/ethnographer & social documentary photographer.
Gaza: Doctors Under Attack is a forensic investigation into the impact of Israeli military operations on Gaza’s healthcare system. This urgent documentary examines evidence of widespread destruction across the territory’s medical infrastructure, where all 36 main hospitals have reportedly been damaged or destroyed. Hundreds of healthcare workers - including doctors and surgeons - are known to have been killed, injured or detained, with some alleging mistreatment.
The documentary shows that, amid relentless bombardment, Gaza’s medical professionals continue to treat patients in severely under-resourced and often unsafe conditions. The film offers a harrowing account of courage, loss and endurance, illuminating the role of frontline workers in one of the world’s most precarious humanitarian contexts.
Please note: This documentary contains graphic and sensitive material.
