About the Film

Israel’s War on Medics, a searing new Middle East Eye documentary by multi-Emmy Award-winning journalist Hind Hassan. The film documents the perilous work of paramedics operating under Israeli bombardment in both Gaza and southern Lebanon. It exposes the systematic targeting of healthcare infrastructure and emergency responders – acts in violation of international humanitarian law.

Using powerful frontline footage, in-depth investigative reporting, and first-hand testimonies, the film captures the immense physical and emotional toll on those striving to save lives amid war.

This film showing follows the recent killing of 15 medics and emergency responders in southern Gaza. On 23 March, the group was shot dead during a rescue mission. A week later, their bodies were discovered in a shallow grave by officials from the United Nations and the Palestinian Red Crescent Society.
