Gazan boy, 15, given hero's welcome as he arrives in UK for urgent medical treatment

Majd Alshagnobi, a 15-year-old boy from Gaza, has arrived in the United Kingdom for urgent medical treatment after suffering devastating facial injuries from an explosion earlier this year. Greeted with flowers and gifts at Heathrow Airport, Majd expressed relief and gratitude for the chance to receive care, though he and his family remain deeply affected by the trauma they endured in Gaza. His mother described the harrowing circumstances of his survival and the ongoing fears for family members left behind, who are now living in tents. The charity Project Pure Hope facilitated Majd's journey, calling for the government to take greater responsibility in helping more children in need. The United Kingdom government has indicated it is accelerating efforts to evacuate more Gazan children requiring urgent medical attention.
