While in Jordan, FAJR patients evacuated from Gaza were warmly welcomed by Princess Dina Mired of Jordan. They were also joined by visitors who came to offer their support, bringing thoughtful gifts to brighten their spirits ahead of their journey to Texas. We are deeply grateful to Princess Dina and everyone who extended their care and kindness during this time. As we look forward to our patients’ safe arrival in Texas, we’ll continue to keep you updated. Support Evacuated Children Out of Gaza at FAJR.org/support-children/

The Younis family’s story is one of immense strength. After a bombing in Gaza, 4-year-old Elia suffered severe burns and amputations, while 8-year-old Salam sustained significant burns on her legs. Both girls were evacuated for urgent care—Elia, after a lengthy ICU stay, is now stable and recovering, and Salam is healing from her skin grafts. We’re deeply thankful to the medical teams in Gaza and Jordan for their unwavering support.

Dr. Tahir has recently arrived in Northern Gaza, ready to provide medical care to those who need it. Crucial medications have also made it to the north, and Dr. Tahir is now focused on ensuring they are sent to the south to help those affected by the crisis. Many problems, as Dr. Tahir mentioned, are beyond their capabilities and resources, however this does not deter them from their mission and they will continue to do everything in their power to help the people of Gaza.

Our FAJR Scientific research team, working alongside other physicians and local Palestinian healthcare workers, have produced this manuscript regarding the challenges to healthcare, particularly the infection crisis, in Gaza. This 26-page manuscript, with 200+ references, details the destruction of hospital and critical civilian infrastructure, unsanitary and unsterile environment that are breeding grounds for infections, complicating post-surgical recovery, and highlights the myriad of medical, logistical, and legal challenges imposed upon aid delivery and care in Gaza.
