(1/2) For the rest of this week, we will not be tweeting our own content. We will be using our platform to re-share the words of doctors, small NGOs and others who have spent some of the last decade in Syria, and have lived experience of the atrocities of the #SyrianCivilWar .

Last week we ran a surgical mission to Lebanon with @SyriaRelief to support Syrian & Palestinian refugees living in refugee camps. The work done by the teams involved everything from repair of blast injuries from conflict, skin grafts for burns as well as more routine operations.

We're delighted to introduce our first scholar from the course, Lucien. He's a general surgeon in Uganda. He works in a rural area & often sees patients with severe injuries from traffic accidents. He tells us that many patients die unnecessarily due to lack of specialist skills

Remembering my op with this incredible man a few years ago.War Doctor author & hero @NottFoundation . If you haven't read his book I recommend it. Operating on a terrorist at gunpoint, saving a young girl in Gaza as the bombs were predicted to start falling.. incredible stories.

Alongside our 5-day training course in northwest #Syria , we'll be upskilling a group of local doctors to become surgical trainers themselves. This means a life-saving legacy will stay in country, long after we've left. More on our upcoming mission👉:
