Palestinian boys shot in testicles as “target practice”
——
Dr. Nick Maynard of Oxford University Hospital says Palestinian boys in Gaza suffered gunshot wounds in their testicles done deliberately by Israeli soldiers.
"They admitted 4 teenage boys, 13 or 14 years old i think, who had all been shot in the testicles."
"The pattern of targeting specific body parts was something we all recognize within our own specialties.”
"It was a very stark pattern which could only have been explained by what i describe as target practice by the Israeli soldiers.”

For years, we’ve heard harrowing stories from our colleagues in Palestine under Israeli occupation. Our institutions have repeatedly censored their voices and sanctioned activists.
❤️🩹 The broadcast of the Gaza: Doctors Under Attack on C4 last week was a crucial milestone. We owe it to our colleagues in Gaza to watch and share it; to be witnesses to their reality: eu1.hubs.ly/H0lxn7V0
⚖️ Those responsible and complicit, including in the UK, must be brought to justice.
🗣️ Health workers have a duty to keep speaking out and we are here to support you. Follow this guide made with colleagues on how you can continue to advocate for Palestine safely and effectively: eu1.hubs.ly/H0lxrJX0
💪 The more united we are, the stronger our voices will be. Consider supporting BIMA as a paid member to be a link in our armour that enables work like this.

Maybe this part should be in the headline: "Qualified social workers conducted a later assessment of the asylum seeker's age and found he was the age he claimed. The social workers said: "Based on information available, ... the overwhelming evidence supports his claimed age"."
