Open petition: Evacuate 50 Gazan children with complex trauma injuries to the UK

Created by Kathryn Clay
Closes on

Nearly 4,000 children are in need of medical evacuation from Gaza. We are asking only for 50 children with life-threatening conditions to be medically evacuated to the UK for medical treatment.

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.
