YouTube Description
as posted by the channelSupport our work
We speak with journalists Steven Thrasher and Afeef Nessouli about their new report for _The Intercept_, which examines how queer, HIV-positive Palestinians are struggling to survive in Gaza with limited access to medication due to Israel's siege and ongoing attacks on the territory. The report centers on E.S., a young Palestinian man who is HIV-positive and who has been in "a race against time," says Nessouli. "The genocide is making it impossible to get medication to people like E.S.," adds Thrasher.
