Two War Doctors. Eyewitness by [Brit] Dr David Nott, [Potential More Proof] by [American] Jennifer Koonings
Istanbul 10.11am / Broadway NYC near Columbia University [still chaos] 3.11am / Dulles Airport 3.11am
I don’t have ability about medic, although when 2nd grade elementary school, I dreamed to be a doctor or paramedic when my friend nearly killed after car accident. Or, when my dad passed away when I’m just 9 years old. But Dr David Nott [British citizen], and also Certified Forensic Examiner for Adults and Children [for detail sexual assault nurse examiners can click here] Jennifer Koonings, has a medic skill and or first responder skill.
‘‘[Israel] They’re executing doctors’’ [Jennifer Koonings]
Very rare The Economist giving a platform like this. Assume [effect] 3 Brit part of World Central Kitchen killed in Gaza by IDF, so UK-based The Economist giving a platform to Brit [still in Gaza]-who still alive, afraid one day another British killed [again by] IDF. Like Jennifer Koonings says, IDF love to execute doctors, Palestinian doctors or foreign.
Jennifer Koonings will be landed in Gaza [/ Rafah border, or pier made by US marine] next Sunday with Freedom Flotilla Coalition. News by Haaretz Israel [around 2.58am NYC], U.S. government agreed to Israel’s plan for Rafah operation in exchange for a limited response to Iran.

Doctor David Malcolm Nott Order British Empire [OBE] writes a firsthand personal account in The Economist on why Gaza is the worst of war zones and is like stepping back into the 19th century.
Excerpts:
Over the past 30 years I have worked in war zones around the world as a surgeon treating casualties resulting from conflict, including in Syria, Yemen, Afghanistan and Iraq. War wounds, the effects of fragments from blast injuries and gunshot wounds require a special set of skills to manage.
my, our, INDONESIA HOSPITAL in Gaza
Gaza, however, is like no war zone I have ever witnessed.
With no access to routine medical or surgical help it appeared that the hundreds of thousands of people squeezed together were on their own; it was the grimmest of tests for Darwin’s theory of survival of the fittest. The effects of communicable infectious diseases were cruelly apparent: some children could not breathe owing to the effects of simple chest infections that had progressed and turned their lungs into pools of pus, known as empyema. For the first time in my life I found myself clinically diagnosing this awful condition—something you would read about in a medical book in the 19th century—in young children. Next to one six-year-old I found half a litre of pus in the drain bottle.
The accident and emergency department was overrun and there were patients lying on the floor and propped up against the wall. Many of them had such severe infections of their limbs that they required amputation; some were due to the effect of diabetes being left untreated, others from the effect of previous injury.

Khan Younis, a city north of Rafah, was at that time under bombardment and many of the wounded had to be left for 12 hours or so before being brought in to us. The majority of them were by that time in a state where nothing could be done. They were dead by the morning.
============
Hopefully Dr David and Jennifer back to hometown again, alive. In London and NYC. Because 3 Brit and 1 American [American Canadian] killed by Israel, and it just World Central Kitchen. Not counting other casualties.
