Pregnancy in Gaza: A Healthcare & Humanitarian Crisis

Pregnancy and childbirth conditions in Gaza amid the ongoing conflict. The speaker, an ObGyn, cites a UN estimate of about 50,000 pregnant people in Gaza and UN warnings that women and newborns are among those worst affected. The video frames healthcare as a human right and calls for an end to civilian suffering in Israel and Palestine. The creator shares a personal perspective as a medical professional and links to a UN report, an Amnesty International petition calling for a ceasefire, and an Al Jazeera video on the topic.

• UN estimate of around 50,000 pregnant people living in Gaza
• UN warnings that women and newborns are bearing the brunt of the conflict
• Healthcare as a human right and civilian safety in the conflict
• Links to the UN report, Amnesty International petition and Al Jazeera video

Nobody, not Palestinians and not Israelis, should suffer like this. Healthcare is a human right and civilians are bearing the horrifying brunt of suffering in Palestine and Israel. According to the UN, women and children are faring the worst - including the estimated 50,000 pregnant people living in Gaza. This is a humanitarian crisis about which I feel obligated to speak on as an ObGyn and human. I feel just as helpless as many of you do, so I have to use my platform to speak out against the atrocious conditions faced by innocent civilians who just want to bring their babies into the world safely...something we all can understand.
