FEATURING DR. AHMED ABDEEN - Israel has continued to pound Gaza with bombs 13 months into a genocidal campaign. Most recently at least 50 Palestinians were killed in an Israeli airstrike on a residential building in north Gaza. Donald Trump’s election in the United States has emboldened Israeli officials who now speak of annexing the West Bank.
Palestinians are exhorting the world to act. Among them is Dr. Ahmed Abdeen, a 29-year-old aspiring neurosurgeon who graduated with top honors, from Ain Shams University in Cairo in 2022. Born in Khan Yunis in the Gaza Strip, he was working in Gaza’s European Hospital when his medical training was cut short and he was evacuated from Gaza in early 2024.
His wife Reem Ahmed’s story of surviving 12 hours under rubble in October 2023 was featured in the Washington Post. Dr. Abdeen is currently in Southern California seeking asylum while his family remains trapped in Gaza.
