"We were living 300 meters away from airstrikes" - Harrowing Gaza Deployment with MSF, Paediatric Nurse Lucy Williams Shares

In this riveting episode of the World Extreme Medicine Podcast, we sit down with WEM faculty Lucy Williams, a seasoned paediatric nurse who recently returned from a life-altering deployment to Gaza with Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF).

From the relative normalcy of Egypt to the war-torn streets of Gaza, Lucy takes us on an emotional journey through her experiences working in a hospital mere meters away from the heart of the conflict.

She shares powerful stories of resilience, hope, and heartbreak, including the tale of a family struggling to survive the aftermath of a devastating blast.

Discover the challenges faced by humanitarian workers in one of the world's most volatile regions, as Lucy provides a rare glimpse into the day-to-day realities of delivering critical care in the face of unimaginable adversity.

Whether you're a healthcare professional considering a career in humanitarian aid or simply someone looking to better understand the human cost of conflict, this episode offers a raw, unfiltered look at the courage and compassion of those who risk everything to help others in need.
