The Islamic University of Gaza has celebrated the graduation of the 14th cohort of medical students, a remarkable milestone that reflects determination, resilience, and the pursuit of life amid destruction and hardship. This graduation sends a powerful message to the world: Gaza will not surrender, and its people will continue building a future filled with knowledge and hope.
PalMed Europe and PalMed Academy are proud to have been among the earliest supporters of this achievement through the Gaza Educate Medics program, dedicated to strengthening medical education and empowering the next generation of doctors in Gaza.
Together, we heal wounds and build a healthier future, God willing.
PalMed Europe is proud to share the heartfelt testimonies of its volunteer doctors who participated in recent emergency medical missions to Gaza:
Dr. Hossam Al-Tawil, Thoracic Surgeon (Germany)
Dr. Juan Palacios, Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Specialist (Spain)
Dr. Ahmad Al-Jaabari, Thoracic Surgeon (Germany)
These physicians volunteered in Gaza for periods ranging from two to three weeks, providing essential care across hospitals in both the northern and southern regions of the Strip.
Their testimonies shed light on the reality of medical work in Gaza, the daily challenges faced by local healthcare workers—despite their extraordinary dedication—and the urgent needs for reconstruction and medical resources. PalMed Europe continues to address these needs through its extensive humanitarian and professional support network.
Together, we heal the wounds.

In cooperation with Yaffa Medical Hospital, the Palestinian Doctors Association in Turkey, in coordination with PalMed Europe, continue the campaign to perform life-saving surgeries for children and the wounded in Gaza.
This initiative is part of a wider series of projects dedicated to supporting the health sector in Gaza, particularly during these extremely challenging times. Hospitals in Gaza continue to suffer from severe shortages of medical equipment and supplies.
It is worth noting that only 16 out of 38 hospitals in Gaza are partially functioning, facing a critical lack of medical staff and essential supplies, including anaesthesia and antibiotics. Despite these hardships, healthcare workers remain committed to saving lives.
We pray for the safety of our people in Gaza and for the swift recovery of the injured. Together, by the will of God, we heal the wounds.
PalMed Europe has successfully completed its 26th medical mission to Gaza, where our team of specialists spent nearly two weeks delivering urgent humanitarian care.
Two senior consultants allowed to enter Gaza and to support Gaza’s struggling health sector:
A UK-based Consultant in Retinal Surgery & Ophthalmology
A Germany-based Consultant in Anaesthesia & Critical Care
Our doctors worked side by side with Gaza’s exhausted health workers at Baptist Hospital in Gaza City, Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, Gaza Eye Hospital, and Al-Amal Hospital. Together, we performed dozens of complex retinal surgeries and provided hundreds of consultations to patients in desperate need of care.
Since the beginning of the war, we have organised and led 26 medical missions to Gaza, in partnership with Rahma and the World Health Organization. Each mission strengthens the health system and eases the suffering of our people.
We are determined to continue sending more missions, expanding our support, and standing firmly with Gaza’s doctors and patients.
The Palestinian Doctors Association in Europe (PalMed Europe) announces the safe return of its 25th medical delegation from the Gaza Strip, following a two-week humanitarian mission providing emergency medical care amid ongoing conflict.
The mission included seven doctors, though four were denied entry into Gaza due to access restrictions. Three physicians successfully reached Gaza, representing the fields of:
ENT (Ear, Nose & Throat Surgery)
Orthopaedic Surgery
Internal Medicine & Cardiology
These doctors worked in Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, where they performed dozens of complex surgical procedures and delivered essential care to hundreds of patients, many of them critically injured.
This mission represents:
The 20th emergency medical delegation sent in collaboration with Rahma Worldwide
And, including five previous missions supported by the World Health Organization, brings the total number of PalMed-led delegations to 25 since the start of the recent escalation in Gaza
PalMed Europe reaffirms its commitment to expanding this critical program, aiming to send additional delegations in the coming weeks to help meet urgent health needs and relieve the suffering of civilians.
With praise and gratitude to God, three doctors from the Palestinian Doctors Association – Europe (PalMed Europe) have arrived today in Gaza, in partnership with Rahma International and in coordination with the Palestinian Ministry of Health.
This marks PalMed’s 20th medical delegation to Gaza since the beginning of the ongoing Genocide, continuing our mission to support the healthcare system and provide urgent medical relief.
This 20th specialist delegation originally consisted of seven doctors; unfortunately, four were denied entry. However, three senior consultants successfully arrived, specializing in:
ENT Surgery (Ear, Nose, and Throat)
Orthopedic Surgery
Internal Medicine and Cardiology
The delegation will perform advanced surgical procedures for patients and wounded individuals in Gaza, aiming to ease their suffering and support local medical teams who have been working under extreme conditions.
With God’s will, PalMed will continue to send specialist delegations, along with essential medications and supplies—fulfilling our medical and humanitarian duty and standing in solidarity with the dedicated healthcare workers of Gaza.
We pray for the safety of our delegation members, all medical staff, and the people of Gaza. May this unjust aggression come to an end soon, by God’s mercy and strength.
As part of ongoing efforts to improve healthcare services for expecting mothers in the Gaza Strip, the “Safe Natural vaginal Birth“ project has been officially launched at the “Heal Palestine” field hospital in the Mawaasi Khan Younis area.
The project is sponsored byPalMed Europe – UK Branch and is being supervised and implemented by the Kuwaiti Specialist Hospital. It aims to provide a safe and healthy environment for natural childbirth while reducing pregnancy and delivery-related complications amid the ongoing humanitarian challenges facing women in the Strip.
This project represents a significant step forward in enhancing maternal and child health in Gaza in 2025.
Palestinian Doctors in Europe – Denmark Branch Funds Surgical Procedures for Patients and the Injured in Northern Gaza
In the midst of ongoing crises caused by the blockade and war on Gaza, even routine medical procedures can become inaccessible.
Many patients have faced prolonged delays in undergoing essential surgeries—whether major, intermediate, or minor—procedures that are crucial for alleviating pain, reducing suffering, improving daily life, and supporting healthy development.
Through our latest project, the Denmark branch of the Palestinian Doctors in Europe has helped 80 patients and injured individuals finally receive the care they have long awaited. The branch provided funding for 113 surgical procedures across various specialities, including general surgery, orthopaedics, urology, gynaecology, ophthalmology, vascular surgery, and maxillofacial surgery. These procedures were carried out by specialised surgical teams at three hospitals: Al-Sahaba Medical Complex, Al-Awda Health and Community Association, and Public Service Hospital.
We have ensured that these patients receive the care they need in a timely and efficient manner.
No patient should have to wait for essential medical treatment.
With your support, we can continue to remove barriers to healthcare access and provide every patient with a healthier future.
