Gaza Health System 'Stretched Beyond Breaking Point', WHO Warns
- Israeli strikes and ground operations damaged or forced at least 20 medical facilities out of service in Gaza during the past week, including multiple hits on Nasser hospital in Khan Younis.
- These attacks occurred amid intensified Israeli military offensives following Hamas's October 7, 2023 cross-border attack and ongoing evacuation orders in the region.
- The damage to health infrastructure has drastically reduced Gaza’s hospital bed capacity from 3,500 to around 1,000 while forcing many health facilities, including some public hospitals in northern Gaza, to close.
- Médecins Sans Frontières reported their field hospital's bed capacity increased to 150%, with medical teams providing over 350 daily consultations despite severe shortages of supplies and restricted patient access.
- The continuing damage and siege have led to an acute humanitarian crisis, with health authorities and aid groups urging an immediate end to attacks and a significant increase in aid allowed into Gaza.
