A GRADUATE doctor has described how he survived a cluster bomb strike while volunteering on the frontline during the Ukraine war.

- BY NICOLA DONNELLY

Dr Oran McInerney, from Doonbeg, Co Clare, graduated with a Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery degree from University of Limerick.

Dr McInerney said at his graduation: "I started medicine because I wanted to use it to volunteer abroad. When the war in Ukraine started, I could not help but think that I should be there helping.

"Watching people suffer every day on my phone and on TV, I couldn't stand it."

Oran was already a qualified Emergency Medical Technician, but in 2023, he went to Denmark to do a course in Combat Casualty Care training.
