A mental health worker who is working to give psychological first aid in the south of Gaza has spoken to FRANCE 24 from there about the horrors of what is happening in the region, and how she and her colleagues go about trying to help. Zahra Legris is Mental Health Activity Manager for Médecins Sans Frontières or MSF, based around Khan Younis. She speaks daily to people, often children, who have been deeply traumatised by the war. Many are suffering from grief, displacement and the destruction of their quality of life. She spoke to us in Perspective.
