Gaza hospitals are running out of essential supplies, medical workers say
"Hospitals in Gaza are running out of essential supplies, with new waves of Israeli airstrikes killing more than 50 people and injuring more than 100 in recent days, medical and aid workers in the devastated Palestinian territory have said. Medics told the Guardian on Sunday that stocks of gauze, antiseptics, thermometers and antibiotics were running low."
"There are staff shortages, not enough ambulances The whole health system is still on its knees, with critical shortages across the board. Gaza's health ministry has reported more than 300 deaths in Israeli strikes since the ceasefire, and medics say huge numbers of people are suffering the consequences of malnutrition, adverse weather conditions, a lack of shelter and new outbreaks of disease."
Stocks of gauze, antiseptics, thermometers and antibiotics are running low in Gaza hospitals. New waves of Israeli airstrikes have killed more than 50 people and injured over 100 in recent days. Daily crises and persistent shortages of supplies and medicines are exhausting hospital staff while casualty numbers remain high. Humanitarian organisations have delivered hundreds of tonnes of aid since the US-backed ceasefire, but medicine and supply stocks remain insufficient. Staff shortages, limited ambulances and critical gaps have left the health system on its knees. More than 300 deaths in strikes have been reported since the ceasefire, and many people face malnutrition, lack of shelter, adverse weather effects and disease outbreaks. Plans for a technocratic committee and an internationally backed transition are under consideration as ceasefire stages progress.
