Human rights violations and the ongoing blockade in the Israeli-occupied Gaza Strip are negatively affecting the health services of hospitals in the region. Frequent Israeli attacks, power outages and the blocking of basic supplies are disrupting the work of hospitals.
Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, Gaza, is facing serious challenges due to a power crisis and a shortage of medicine. Patients receiving treatment at the hospital are not receiving adequate medical care. Malnutrition and medicine shortages are particularly endangering the lives of children like 9-year-old Yunus Jumaa.
The healthcare system in Gaza has suffered a serious collapse due to the occupational blockade, while the lack of medical supplies and medicine in hospitals is causing loss of life.
