A few weeks ago, we shared the news that Dr Saif had sadly left Gaza. Today, we’re very pleased to introduce you to Dr Ahmed Thabet and the vet team who are continuing our work to help Gaza’s donkeys. Dr Ahmed is joined by two other vets and a veterinary assistant. Together, they strengthen our veterinary
