What happens

Gaza: Doctors Under Attack is a 2025 British documentary film directed by Karim Shah. The film examines doctors and healthcare workers during the Gaza war, including the killing and alleged torture of healthcare workers and attacks on hospitals by the Israel Defense Forces. Originally commissioned by the BBC under the title Gaza: Medics Under Fire, the documentary was dropped by the broadcaster following an internal review. It was later picked up by Channel 4, which aired it in July 2025. The film received positive reviews, with The Guardian naming it one of the 50 best television shows of 2025. At the 2026 British Academy Television Awards, it won the Best Current Affairs award. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
