Britain Palestine Project: Life Support - New Documentary

Posted: 6th November 2026

Peace with justice, security and equal rights for Israelis and Palestinians

What happens when the people trying to save lives become witnesses to the destruction of an entire healthcare system?

We would like to draw your attention to an important new documentary, Life Support, which tells the stories of international doctors who have worked in Gaza over the past two years, bearing witness to the devastating impact of Israel’s military campaign on patients, medical staff and hospitals.

Directed by Daniele Rugo, the film brings together extraordinary firsthand testimony and footage from doctors working under almost unimaginable conditions: bombed hospitals, desperately limited medical supplies, starvation and an overwhelming number of casualties, many of them women and children.

At a time when independent international media access to Gaza has been severely restricted, these doctors’ accounts provide a vital record of what they have seen and experienced.
