Watan-Professor Ahmed Abdelaziz, the renowned Egyptian orthopedic surgeon who captured attention and touched hearts over the past few days, as he headed to the Gaza Strip to participate in treating the wounded, presented his testimony on the horrors witnessed in the region.

The Egyptian doctor Ahmed Abdelaziz said in an interview with Al Jazeera live channel that he came to the Gaza Strip to extend a helping hand to the people amid the suffering they endure due to the ongoing Israeli war since October last year.

He added that he came to Al-Awda Hospital in the Gaza Strip in coordination with the “Rahma World Aid” foundation to provide medical assistance to the injured.

Abdelaziz explained that the medical force in the region is performing miracles in treating the wounded despite the shortage of medical supplies, noting that many injuries require long years to be healed.

He continued: “All injuries are complex, and each patient needs a complete team of doctors to work with them, which is not available.”

Abdelaziz expressed his astonishment at the living conditions endured by the residents in the region, due to the lack of clean water and the collapse of the sewage system.

He called on the international community to quickly rebuild the region after the collapse and destruction of all means of life.

Dr. Ahmed Abdelaziz, a famous orthopedic surgery professor at Kasr Al-Ainy Medical School in Egypt, arrived in Gaza days ago as a volunteer to treat the victims of the Israeli aggression.

Dr. Tarek Ezzat, head of the Oncology Department at Zagazig University who volunteered to treat the injured at Al-Arish Hospital, revealed through his Facebook page: “A tribute and gratitude to this giant, Professor Dr. Ahmed Abdelaziz, the famous orthopedic surgery professor at Cairo Medical School, and his medical team and assistants who were present from the early hours to open the crossing.”

He added: “During two days of continuous work without a ceasefire, they performed seventeen very complex and delicate fracture surgeries inside Al-Arish General Hospital. The work is extremely wonderful. The injuries are extremely terrible. The situation is extremely difficult.”
