当他在加沙工作的外科病区遭遇以色列空袭时， trauma外科医生费罗泽·西德瓦博士真切体会到了战区工作的残酷现实。
“那天我吓坏了，这是肯定的，”西德瓦回忆起2025年3月23日袭击汗尤尼斯纳赛尔医院的空袭时说道。
“重症监护室的门就像酒吧里的那种双开旋转门。我往外走的时候，门弹回来砸在了我脸上，我当时就想，‘这到底是什么玩意儿？’”他说，“那是一枚击中医院的炸弹，在场的巴勒斯坦人立刻就反应过来了，他们扑到我身上，想保护我的安全。”
爆炸造成两人死亡，西德瓦表示，其中一名是他的病人。消息人士告诉哥伦比亚广播公司新闻，当时正在该院接受治疗的哈马斯政治成员、发言人伊斯梅尔·巴胡姆是袭击目标。
常驻加利福尼亚州的西德瓦曾前往多米尼加共和国、海地、加纳、布基纳法索、乌克兰以及最近的加沙提供援助。
他表示希望明年初重返加沙，但他的母亲非常担心他的安全。
“这可能是40年来，甚至30年来第一次，她彻底崩溃大哭，在电话里冲我吼道：‘你上次在那儿的时候差点就死了，为什么还要回去？’”西德瓦说。
他告诉母亲：“抱歉，妈妈。总得有人去做这份工作。”
援助人员面临的日益加剧的危险
根据联合国的数据，过去三年里已有超过1000名援助人员遇害。独立研究组织“人道主义成果”的《援助人员安全数据库》显示，自2000年以来，针对援助人员的暴力事件数量增长了1500%以上。
该组织的《援助人员安全报告》称，去年加沙、苏丹、南苏丹和刚果民主共和国发生的事件和 killings 占了绝大多数。
根据该数据库的数据，今年迄今为止至少发生了160起重大袭击事件。
今年2月，苏丹在10天内发生了四起袭击事件，导致世界粮食计划署的合作伙伴或承包商在运送粮食时死伤。在2022年遭俄罗斯入侵的乌克兰，世界粮食计划署的资产，包括仓库、卡车和带有标识的装甲车，经常成为无人机袭击的目标。
“至关重要的需求”
创伤外科医生迈克尔·萨莫托夫卡博士每年前往乌克兰6到10次。
“从事我这份工作的人不到100万，护士也是。所以如果你轰炸一家医院、一名医疗从业者或是一名医护兵，你就是在摧毁那些在提供至关重要的医疗服务的人，”他说。
萨莫托夫卡表示，他和同事们制定了撤离计划，身边也配有安保团队。但在2023年12月，一枚导弹击中了他两个月前曾在其中工作过的一间手术室。
“这涉及到心理层面的影响，会让人斗志消沉，”他说。
尽管如此，他表示没有任何事情能阻止他重返战场。
“我发自内心地认为我所做的事情意义重大，”他说。
萨莫托夫卡表示，交战各国必须遵守《日内瓦公约》——这项保护平民、医护人员、援助人员及其他群体的国际条约。
“必须对那些违反国际法的人施以某种形式的惩罚，”萨莫托夫卡说。
西德瓦对此表示赞同，并且更进一步，呼吁美国人致电他们的国会议员。
“保护人员的一个非常实际的办法就是表明，如果你出去杀害医生和护士，那么你就再也别想从美国获得武器，”他说。
美国国务院拒绝了哥伦比亚广播公司新闻的采访请求。该部门在一份声明中表示，美国支持对任何袭击援助人员和医院的行为追究责任，并谴责此类暴力行为。

直击：作战地带援助人员面临的日益加剧的危险

A U.S. doctor survived a deadly strike in Gaza. He still plans to return: “Somebody’s got to go do this”
September 25, 2026 / 3:55 PM EDT / CBS News
The reality of being a trauma surgeon in a war zone came crashing down on Dr. Feroze Sidhwa when the surgical unit where he was working in Gaza was hit by an Israeli airstrike.
“I got scared that day, that’s for sure,” Sidhwa said, recalling the March 23, 2025, strike that hit the Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis.
“The ICU has those like saloon-type swinging doors. As I walked out, the door came back and hit me in the face and I was like, ‘What the heck was that?’” he said. “That was a bomb that hit the hospital and the Palestinians all recognized it immediately and, like, jumped on me to try and keep me safe.”
The blast killed two people, including, Sidhwa says, one of his patients. Sources told CBS News that Ismail Barhoum, a political Hamas member and spokesperson who was being treated there, was the target.
Sidhwa, based in California, has traveled to the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Ghana, Burkina Faso, Ukraine and most recently Gaza to render aid.
He said he hopes to go back to Gaza early next year, but his mother worries about his safety.
“For the first time in probably 40 years, maybe 30 years, she just broke down crying, screamed at me on the phone: ‘They almost killed you last time you were there. Why are you going back?’” Sidhwa said.
He said he told her, “I’m sorry, Mom. Somebody’s got to go do this.”
Rising danger for aid workers
More than 1,000 aid workers have been killed over the past three years, according to the United Nations. Violent incidents affecting aid workers have grown by more than 1,500% since 2000, according to the Aid Worker Security Database from the independent research organization Humanitarian Outcomes.
Last year, Gaza, Sudan, South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo accounted for the majority of incidents and killings, the organization’s Aid Worker Security Report said.
So far, there have been at least 160 major attacks this year, according to the database.
In February, there were four incidents within 10 days in Sudan that resulted in World Food Programme partners or contractors getting killed or injured while delivering food. In Ukraine, which Russia invaded in 2022, World Food Programme assets, including awarehouse, trucks and marked armored vehicles, have often been targeted by drone attacks.
“A critical need”
Trauma surgeon Dr. Michael Samotowka travels to Ukraine six to 10 times a year.
“There’s not a million people who do what I do. There’s not a million nurses. So if you bomb a hospital or a healthcare provider or a medic, you’re taking out somebody that’s providing a critical need,” he said.
Samotowka said he and his colleagues have an evacuation plan and security team with them. But in December 2023, a missile struck an operating room that he had been working in two months prior.
“There’s a psychological aspect to it. It’s demoralizing,” he said.
Still, he said there is nothing that would keep him from going back.
“I really feel very passionately that what I’m doing is important,” he said.
Samotowka said nations at war need to respect the Geneva Conventions, international treaties that protect civilians, medics, aid workers and others.
“There needs to be some form of punishment for those who violate the law,” Samotowka said.
Sidhwa agrees and goes a step further, encouraging Americans to call their members of Congress.
“One very practical way of protecting people is just saying that if you go out and kill doctors and nurses, then you’re not going to get weapons from the United States anymore,” he said.
The State Department declined an interview request from CBS News. It said in a statement that the U.S. favors accountability to anyone who attacks aid workers and hospitals and it condemns this type of violence.
