Background
We ask the UK Government to organise the medical evacuation of 50 children to the UK for treatment. They could be spread evenly through the regional major trauma centres, so no one area is not overburdened. Children with life threatening trauma injuries or health conditions such as acute renal failure which Gaza does not have the staff or facilities to treat should be prioritised. There are insufficient health staff in Gaza, with around 1,722 health workers reported to have been killed.
