A group of doctors organised a silent march in several cities across Türkiye to protest Israel’s deadly offensive on Palestinians in Gaza in solidarity with the Palestinian health workers in the blockaded enclave.
Doctors wearing white aprons with red handprints carried signs expressing solidarity with Palestine and condemning Israel’s attacks on hospitals and civilians. The protests have been held for the third time in Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, Bursa and other cities across Türkiye.
“Physicians and health workers in Gaza’s hospitals are fighting a monumental struggle to provide treatment in dire conditions without electricity, medicine and oxygen,” said Mehmet Muhsin Kefçi, a physician and spokesperson for the group in Istanbul.
“Israel’s attacks on physicians, health workers and patients are a clear war crime.”
Kefci said that they would expand the silent march every week until the Israeli attacks stopped. He called on all his colleagues to boycott pharmaceutical companies that openly support the persecution of Palestinians in Gaza.
Since the start of the offensive, Israeli attacks have killed 280 medical staff, while a further 31 others, including Director of the Al Shifa Hospital Mohammad Abu Salmiya, have been detained by Israeli forces, according to Gaza’s government media office.
Around 130 health centres have been targeted, while 20 hospitals and 46 medical centres have been put out of service.
