Not just Palestine, but Gaza. The cost of getting anything, medical equipment especially, into Gaza is insanely high and it's usually an unreliable process. Thats likely why theres such a huge emphasis on being able to create the entire unit in the Gaza Strip.
I actually attended a talk by Dr. Loubani this past weekend at MIT and one thing he emphasized was that everything they do has to be reliably replicated in Gaza. So yeah, one could conceivably purchase the Littmann replica from AliExpress but getting it into Gaza? Another story...

I read "The five people you meet in heaven" by Mitch Albom. Sure it might be fictional and meant for a younger audience, but this book really changed the way I think. Really makes you realize that every little interaction you have with someone affects that person for the rest of their lives in one way or another; and vice versa.
