UN agency warns of the threat weighing on thousands of patients in the Gaza Strip, mainly victims of war. After almost five months of war, the Gazan health system is more exhausted than ever.
Of 36 hospitals in the Palestinian territory, 23 are not functioning and the others are limited to varying degrees by shortages and damage suffered in bombings or ground operations. For the first time since the start of the war, WHO teams visited two hospitals in northern Gaza last weekend, including Al-Awda Pediatric Hospital.
