00:41Doctors who've been on the ground and have dedicated their time in helping with children being blown into pieces,
00:52trying to put them together, trying to help families on the ground in Gaza and this is a moment where we get to hear from them.
01:02Because we're here calling for an end to the oppression, an end to the occupation, an end to the violence.
