In this episode of the Seeking Justice podcast, Dr. Mohammed Mustafa (Dr Mo), an emergency physician and humanitarian, shares his experiences and insights from his recent work in the genocide in Gaza and rural/remote Australia. Dr Mo calls on Prime Minister Albanese to step up and lead a humanitarian intervention for the people of Gaza. Dr Mo discusses the challenges faced in providing medical care in conflict zones, the importance of humanising victims of war, and the need for compassion and understanding in addressing historical political divisions. Dr. Mo emphasizes the role of Australia in leading global humanitarian efforts, including calling on the Albanese Government to establish an Australia Field Hospital in Gaza, and advocates for a shift in narrative towards empathy and action.
