During the event, Dr. Emrullah Çelikperçin delivered a press statement on behalf of the group.
The Rafah Crossing, vital for providing essential supplies to the people of Gaza, has been forcibly taken over by Israel, cutting off Gaza's access to the outside world. This latest act of aggression exacerbates the already dire health crisis in the region, endangering the lives of countless individuals, stated Dr. Emrullah.
Calling on the international community to condemn Israel's unjust actions and address the urgent needs of the Gazan people, Dr. Emrullah emphasized the responsibility of all humanity to protect the lives of those in Gaza. He highlighted that medical assistance is a fundamental right protected by international law, even in times of conflict.
The protest by healthcare professionals underscores the urgent need for global solidarity and action to halt the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and ensure the well-being of its residents. (ILKHA)
