Protection
Medical workers are not targets
Hospitals, ambulances, and the people who staff them must be protected under international humanitarian law. Attacking them is not collateral damage; it is the destruction of a society's last safety net.
Advocacy
A doctor's job is to witness — and then to speak.
When you have seen what happens to medicine in a war zone, silence is not neutrality. It is complicity. These are the positions Dr. Ahmad has carried from the hospital floor to the United Nations.

5
times Dr. Ahmad has been denied entry into Gaza since October 2024 — despite planned humanitarian medical missions.

Access
Humanitarian access, unhindered
Aid and medical relief must reach civilians without obstruction. Blocking food, fuel, and medical supplies is a collective punishment that falls first on the sick and the wounded.
Witness
The duty to tell the truth
A physician who has worked inside a sealed-off hospital owes the public an honest account of what they saw. Testimony is part of the work.
On the floor of the UN
Silence in the face of what I have seen would be the one choice I could not live with as a physician.

Act now
The first act of advocacy is to refuse to look away. The next four take five minutes.
