Osama Barham lies in a tent in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, caught in a race against time as his medical condition deteriorates rapidly. He has already lost one leg to injury, and his remaining limb now faces imminent amputation without urgent surgical intervention, Shehab Wire reported.
Barham's health is deteriorating at a dangerous pace, with medical complications mounting daily. He remains dependent on evacuation from Gaza to access the specialized treatment needed to prevent further amputation and preserve what remains of his mobility. The window for medical intervention is narrowing as his condition worsens.
