In the heart of Gaza's chaos, Dr. Nasser Balbul, a neonatologist at Al-Shifa Hospital, is racing against time to save fragile lives. With 65 premature infants under his care and only 40 incubators available, every moment feels like a marathon. \"We'll keep working until our last breath,\" he says—a promise echoing through hospital corridors where hope battles exhaustion.
Imagine: 40 beds for 65 tiny survivors. Each incubator now holds two babies, their tiny hands clinging to life as medical teams juggle limited resources. 💔 But Dr. Balbul's team refuses to surrender. \"We adapt. We fight. Every second counts,\" he explains, embodying resilience that could rival any superhero movie plot.
This isn't just a medical crisis—it’s a testament to humanity’s grit. For young professionals and students worldwide, it's a stark reminder of healthcare inequalities—and the unsung heroes bridging those gaps. As Dr. Balbul puts it: \"These babies are our future. If we don’t protect them, who will?\" 🌍✨
