EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in August 1939, we see Shukeir, a local doctor, standing proudly outside the Palestinian Department of Health Mobile Ophthalmic Clinic van. The van is parked in an Arab village just outside of Najd, Gaza. The image captures the dedication and commitment of Dr. Shukeir as he provides essential medical care to the villagers in this remote region of the Middle East. Dressed in traditional clothing, he exudes a sense of authority and compassion. Surrounded by men, women, and children from the community, Dr. Shukeir symbolizes hope for those seeking healthcare services during a time when access was limited. The mobile clinic serves as a lifeline for these individuals who would otherwise struggle to receive proper treatment. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into life under British Mandate Palestine where healthcare resources were scarce but not entirely absent thanks to doctors like Dr. Shukeir who went above and beyond their call of duty. As we observe this historic moment frozen in time, it reminds us that even amidst adversity and challenging circumstances, there are always heroes working tirelessly to make a difference in people's lives.
