Tune in to Dr. Deirdre Nunan on BBC’s World Service Radio Show, Newshour, as she shares her insightful experiences in Gaza.

Dr. Deirdre Nunan, an orthopedic surgeon from Lanigan, SK, has made significant contributions in Gaza through her volunteer work with Doctors Without Borders Canada since 2018. At a recent press conference featuring NDP MP Heather McPherson and fellow Canadian healthcare professionals returning from Gaza, Dr. Nunan conveyed her experiences with compassion, remarking, “Despite the so-called ceasefire, I encountered new injuries every day—shattered limbs, trauma from weaponized drones, and profound suffering that is difficult to express.” In a recent media interview, she reflected, “What I’m experiencing now is among the most challenging situations I have ever faced. Nevertheless, I feel a strong conviction that this is where I am meant to be.”

The show will be aired on Saturday, May 31st at 8:00 am Easter Time.
