Six months on from the 2014 conflict, UK aid from the Department for International Development is still funding teams of NHS doctors to travel to Gaza in conjunction with British charities Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) and IDEALS.

They're providing vital life-saving and life-improving surgery to some of the people who were most severely injured in the conflict last year. The doctors have been volunteering in their spare time to visit Gaza roughly once a month over the past eight months, helping to carry out complex operations and provide training to Palestinian colleagues.
