Today, Sunday, the head of the nurses’ union and the nursing supervisor of “Shuhada Al-Aqsa” Hospital in the Gaza Strip, Khalil Al-Dakran, warned of the collapse of the health sector as a result of the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip.

Al-Dakran said in statements for the fields “The quantities of fuel available in Gaza’s hospitals are sufficient for a limited number of hours,” he warned of hospitals shutting down as a result of a lack of fuel, which indicates a health disaster in the Strip.

He pointed out that the entire Gaza Strip is being bombed by the occupation forces, and the number of martyrs and wounded exceeds the capabilities of hospitals.

Al-Dakran called on the international community to pressure the occupation to open humanitarian corridors to transport critical cases and deliver aid.

He confirmed that the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip led to the death of about 15 martyrs and the injury of more than 40 ambulance crews as a result of their targeting.

For his part, the spokesman for the Ministry of Health in Gaza, Ashraf Al-Qudra, said that 70% of the population of the Gaza and North Gaza regions are deprived of health services due to the Israeli aggression.

Al-Qudra pointed out that the cessation of UNRWA services and the evacuation of its centers deprive 70% of Gaza’s population of health services.

Al-Qudra pointed out that ambulance crews are facing great difficulty in evacuating victims as a result of the massive destruction that occurred in residential neighborhoods and roads.

In turn, a reporter reported The fields There is a significant shortage of beds in Gaza’s hospitals as a result of the high number of infections.

He added that dozens of families in Gaza were completely exterminated as a result of the Israeli occupation’s aggression against the Gaza Strip, adding that the occupation continues the mass killing of hundreds of Palestinians daily in Gaza.

Our correspondent reported that the past 24 hours recorded the highest number of martyrs, exceeding 300 martyrs.

In the latest update on the death toll of martyrs who died in the Israeli aggression on Gaza, the Health Ministry reported that 2,329 Palestinians, more than 66% of whom were children and women, were martyred, and 9,042 others were injured.

It is worth noting that there are unidentified children in hospitals who were martyred, and other children whose entire families were exterminated.

Yesterday, the spokesman for the Ministry of Health in Gaza, Ashraf Al-Qudra, said, “What is currently happening is a war of genocide against Gaza, in front of the world, which is doing nothing.”

Al-Qudra stressed that the medical teams “will not respond to Israeli threats to evacuate the hospitals, but rather decided to continue working, to remain in their places and to continue working, and not to leave the hospitals even if they were demolished above our heads.”

He called on the international community to work to remove the wounded and sick through a safe corridor, in order to receive treatment outside the Gaza Strip, and to open a safe corridor for the entry of aid, medical supplies, and fuel into the Gaza Strip, stressing that a disaster will occur in the Strip if the crossings are not opened for the entry of medical aid.

Yesterday, a reporter said The fields In its raids on the Gaza Strip, the Israeli occupation uses new bombs that prevent the possibility of recovering the bodies of the martyrs from under the rubble.

The United Nations, UNRWA, warned that water would run out in Gaza, which would pose a threat to the lives of two million people inside the Strip, as a result of the stifling siege imposed by the occupation on the people.
