Friends and colleagues, please consider joining @IrishhcwforPal . Weaponised starvation is a war crime. We cannot be silent. Let’s use our collective voice to stand up and speak up.
We are Irish dietitians.
We are heartbroken.
We are angry.
Dr. Ayman Abu Tair was a Palestinian dietitian, lecturer, researcher, and father. He was killed on 27 June 2025 by an Israeli airstrike while sheltering with his family. He had already lost his wife, children, and mother.
Dr. Abu Tair spent his final days trying to get therapeutic feeds for children and warning about malnutrition among healthcare workers in Gaza. He never stopped working for his patients.
We honour him. We mourn him.
And we will not stay silent.
More than 1,580 healthcare workers have been killed in Gaza.
We are calling on professional bodies, colleagues, and communities everywhere:
Stand with Palestinian healthcare workers.
Share this. Tag your reps. Demand action.
🇵🇸 Solidarity, not silence.

“If you do not have actions that affect real change, then your solidarity is not real and your pursuit of justice is hollow“ - Dr Trish Scanlan, member of Irish Healthcare Workers for Palestine and Co-Director of Children Not Numbers.
We are again watching images of the Indonesian Hospital in North Gaza be attacked by the Israeli Occupation Forces. @MichealMartinTD take action NOW
Did you know?
Teva Pharmaceuticals is one of the largest companies in Israel.
It is the largest manufacturer of generic drugs in the World.
Teva’s profits fund apartheid and genocide of Palestinians.
What can you do?
Teva is one of Ireland’s largest suppliers of generic medicines and many of us here in Ireland take Teva medications. In most cases, an effective and safe alternative exists.
As a patient:
It’s easy - just tell your Pharmacist you don't want Teva medications. You have that right.
Call your pharmacist and request a note be put on your file that you say “NO TEVA” because of their involvement in ethnic cleansing and Genocide in Palestine.
The Pharmacist will have no problem adding a note to your file and it will be completed quickly. This will apply to all your prescriptions going forward.
Whenever you’re in the pharmacy, you can ask the pharmacist for an alternative apartheid-free manufacturer for your medication (where an effective and safe alternative exists).
As a pharmacist:
Prioritise ordering and dispensing alternatives to Teva products wherever possible
As a doctor:
Add to prescriptions: “do not dispense Teva pharmaceutical products if a suitable alternative exists”.

On International Nurse's day, we remember all the Palestinian Nurses killed by Israel. We will never forget our brave colleagues or stop seeking justice for them.

There are 290,000 children in Gaza on the brink of death right now.
This is a threat to entire generations through deliberate starvation.
Let the aid in! Let Gaza live!

“You don’t bomb hospitals. You don’t turn off the electricity and oxygen to neonatal units. You don’t carry doctors at gunpoint out of hospitals. You don’t take them away and break an orthopedic nurse’s fingers and leave them on the side of the road.”
Powerful & heartfelt speech

Many thanks to everyone who gave their time to organize and speak at this event @ILFA_Ireland@odti_irl
This Doctor should have been safe by now, under protected status, and reveered by international leaders as an icon of Ethics. Instead he is still a hostage of Israel, which has abducted him without ever charging him.
