Once again, irish healthcare workers are out on the streets of Dublin.
We do this for our colleagues who are being starved, abducted, tortured and murdered by the Israeli regime .
We do it for the children of Palestine. They’ve lost parents, siblings , families and even limbs.
Our government must do more to end the genocide.
We wont stop.
Thank you to everyone who attended today.
We were delighted to welcome colleagues from the UK HCID Network to the NHLIU and Mater Hospital yesterday for an Info-Sharing Session in support of our upcoming Coaching of Coaches PPE Training. A great day of collaboration, learning, and shared expertise! #HCID#NHLIU#PPE

For two bloody months, we have seen the Israeli forces' indiscriminate attacks on Gaza target Palestinian civilians and healthcare workers. Our patients and staff have been killed. Nowhere is safe.
We call for an immediate and sustained ceasefire in Gaza.
It all #MustStopNow.
Today @WHO led a very high risk @UN assessment mission to Al-Shifa hospital in #Gaza.
The team saw a hospital no longer able to function: no water, no food, no electricity, no fuel, medical supplies depleted.
Given this deplorable situation and the condition of many patients, including babies, health workers requested support to evacuate patients who cannot receive lifesaving care there anymore.
We are working with partners to develop an urgent evacuation plan and ask for full facilitation of this plan.
We continue to call for protection of health and of civilians. The current situation is unbearable and unjustifiable.
Ceasefire. NOW.
