Channel 4
With the the
British press offering a strangely sheltered coverage of the
worsening situation in Syria, Channel 4 have done what they do best
and gone several steps further by diving undercover with their
critically acclaimed Unreported World series to tell the story of
Syria's Rebel Doctor.
NHS doctor, Rami
Habib, was previously based in Leicester but has been holed up for
more than two years in Salma, an ex-holiday destination in northern
Syria, which has been flattened by daily shelling by government
forces.
Despite constantly
having to cut power so the hospital can't be seen by hostile
helicopters and being a government target for treating rebel
soldiers, Dr Habib sees no other option than to stay and do his part
in over-throwing President Al-Assad, by helping those wounded by his
regime.
