What do you know about first aiders in war zones?

First aiders in wild areas are those who save people from many opportunities and save their lives. Wherever such accidents occur, they reach at all times and provide assistance to the injured, especially when there is no complete medical facility in the hospital or where there is no hospital facility nearby where the accident occurred. These people save their lives by providing assistance. These people are usually trained. The aim of these people is to save the lives of the injured and keep their condition stable and then take them to further medical assistance.These are first aiders, they are affiliated with various organizations such as the Red Cross or Halal Amr, welfare organizations, military medical units, independent volunteers.

Why do people volunteer in such dangerous situations?

They consider it their duty to serve humanity and help people in pain and suffering. Some volunteers have personally experienced such situations. By helping others, they reduce their own suffering. People want to be of service to someone, and someone in our lives must benefit. For religious or moral reasons, many people consider it a form of worship, goodness, or a means of helping people. And with international responsibility, military organizations such as the International Organization of Medical Sciences send their workers to war zones to help the affected people there. Some doctors, nurses, or medical workers work out of loyalty to their profession, and some people consider it their duty to help people in pain and suffering.

What kind of challenge and risks do these volunteers face?

This challenge is the daily trauma of seeing the injured and dead or the risk of being arrested by witnesses. Some groups or problem individuals can target first aiders, such as those who are often not available through the Internet, phone or basic communication. This work is very difficult and carries dangerous psychological pressure. It can also be life-threatening, such as being shot, being hit by a gunshot, being hit by a bomb, being hit by an airstrike, etc. Then there are risks due to the lack of facilities. Cultural or linguistic difficulties can also be the reason for this. Volunteers working in different areas face language or local traditions. Lack of facilities, drinking water, food, a safe place to stay, even basic facilities like toilets are often not available. Violation of international laws. In some war zones, volunteers are still attacked. International laws are violated, but law enforcement is not possible there. Risk of diseases. Poor conditions, contaminated water and lack of equipment increase the risk of infection, epidemics or physical diseases. Day and night shifts are not the rule in war situations. First aiders Have to be on alert twenty four hours a day.
