Moving message from Gaza by Palestinian doctor who graduated in Cuba

Havana, Oct 26 (Prensa Latina) President Miguel Díaz-Canel was moved by a message from a young Palestinian doctor who graduated in Cuba, who is saving lives amid the massacre that Israel is perpetrating against that brother people.

The head of State described the call from Dr. Fayez Abed, who graduated from the Latin American School of Medicine (ELAM-Cuba) in 2020, to stop the actions in Gaza, as “moving words” for Cubans.

In his denunciation, broadcast on Cuban television on Wednesday, the doctor described the siege of the enclave as ethnic cleansing and a genocide of the Palestinian people after 18 days of ongoing bombings day and night.

From the Al-Awda Surgical Clinical Hospital in Gaza, Dr. Fayez Abed explained that at the time of his message – posted on social networks -, “the numbers of fallen martyrs are on the rise, 400 civilians are being murdered daily in the Gaza Strip.”

He warned that the Israeli Army “threatened to bomb our hospital four times and we are not surprised after the massacres that this criminal regime has committed, but we decided to defy it and remain at our job providing services to the wounded and saving lives.”

He called for support “to continue to fight, and to remain firm in our land, we need supplies and medical Brigades to strengthen our resilience, so far we have not received anything,” he said in the recording.

The doctor repeated his determination to remain with his colleagues “firm on our land” even at the cost of their own lives.
