Yesterday, Tuesday, the Ministry of Health in Gaza announced that Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital is the only hospital providing health services to approximately one million people currently in the Strip, and that there is no room to receive new wounded due to the significant shortage of medical supplies and personnel, amid continuing bombing in the areas surrounding the hospital.

Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital spokesman, Khalil Al-Dakran, explained in a press conference that the continuous bombing of the Bureij and Al-Maghazi camps in the middle of the Gaza Strip led to the hospital being filled with wounded people who arrived during the past hours.

Al-Dakran warned that the hospital is unable to provide treatment for more injured people as the bombing continues, noting that the number of wounded exceeds the clinical capacity by more than three times, while patients sleep on the hospital floor and in outdoor tents.

He added that a number of injured people died due to the inability of medical teams to provide the necessary treatment as a result of operating rooms being crowded with extremely difficult injuries.

Last May, the Ministry of Health announced that more than 80% of the hospitals in the Gaza Strip had been out of service as a result of Israeli attacks since the beginning of the war on October 7.
