A growing number of healthcare staff in Newry are taking their own actions to protest the catastrophic man made situation spreading through Gaza.

As ever increasing images of emaciated babies and children horrify people around the world, midwives and other healthcare workers began a rolling 24 hour fast during the week beginning 28th July.

In order to help healthcare workers and colleagues in Gaza who are working on horrific conditions to help the starving or wounded despite having to go without food themselves.

We are asking people to support our fast and to help us send life saving aid to Gaza.

Médecins Sans Frontières / Doctors Without Borders (MSF) is the world's leading medical humanitarian aid organisation.

We provide emergency assistance to people affected by armed conflict, epidemics and natural or man-made disasters, without discrimination and irrespective of race, religion, gender or political affiliation.

This money will go directly to the MSF Gaza Regional Emergency Fund
