Israel's Gaza Health System Destruction: Deliberate and Methodical, Experts Allege in New Report
Israel has destroyed Gaza's health system 'deliberately and methodically', leaving the territory without access to critical medical care; a recent crossing reopening has allowed some patients to escape, but many more remain stranded.
A report has found that Israel's actions in Gaza were deliberately aimed at destroying the health system, employing tactics such as withholding medical supplies and equipment, cutting off electricity to hospitals, and restricting access to emergency services. The damage was sustained over years, with hospitals severely limited and doctors forced to resort to makeshift treatments. This destructive approach was used systematically and methodically, leaving many Palestinians without adequate care for severe injuries or illnesses. As a result, Gaza's health system remains severely strained.
