Pleasure to present our preliminary 5-year findings on penetrating trauma in Ireland. Accounting ~1.7% (421/24,123) of all trauma cases, with an annual increase of ~1%. Over 50% require operative management, with a mortality rate of ~7.8%. @estesonline@RCSI_Irl@McmonagleMorgan
Lawful professional speech must be protected for doctors who speak out about atrocities.
Confidence in professional regulation requires transparent processes and for complaints to be handled based on evidence alone, write @RubinMinhas and colleagues

Who is Hezbollah? Full Documentary
As Israel prepares for a ground invasion on Lebanon I recently travelled to Beirut and South Lebanon to speak to people on the ground about how they view national resistance to Israeli aggression.
What do they have to say about effective campaigns by the Israeli lobby in the West in designating Hezbollah as a terrorist organisation, despite huge public support within Lebanese society?
With some Israeli politicians threatening a Gaza-type genocide on Lebanon, what will unfold in the coming weeks and months? Has Israel learned anything from its failed conquests against the Hezbollah?
Very sad indeed to see Fergal go. His reporting has been magnificent over the years. A former RTร man who became quintessentially BBC. https://t.co/rvUMAB3Nre

Not sure the magnitude of this is fully understood: Israel has wiped out 2,700 families in Gaza, leaving 6,000+ people as the sole survivors of entire bloodlines. This is the result of deliberate policy, pursued with full knowledge of its effects. This is not war. It is genocide.
The Sundance premiere #AmericanDoctor is a clear-eyed, unrelenting look at the genocide your tax dollars are paying for.

We reaffirm our support for Palestinians' right of self-determination and for a negotiated two-state solution.
ICJP has been critical to my ability, over the last 2 years, to continue my work with war wounded Palestinian and Lebanese children. They are supporting me on my upcoming GMC case, which is the 10th case since 2023.
