Today, Tuesday, Gaza Health Department announced the complete collapse of the health system in the Strip’s hospitals, as a result of the ongoing Israeli aggression for the eighteenth consecutive day, and the accompanying complete siege, the depletion of medical supplies, an electricity outage, and the depletion of fuel.

Ashraf Al-Qudra, spokesman for the Ministry of Health in Gaza, said in a press conference to review the developments in the aggression and the health situation, that “the doors of hospitals in the Strip remaining open does not mean that they are providing service to the wounded flocking to them.”

Al-Qudra pointed out that the number of victims of the Israeli aggression on Gaza had risen to 5,791 martyrs, including 2,360 children and 1,292 women, and the wounded to 16,297.

He explained that the occupation committed 47 massacres against Palestinian families in the past hours, killing 704 martyrs, including 305 children and 173 women.

Al-Qudra also pointed out that 12 hospitals and 32 health centers are out of service, and we fear that more will be out of service due to targeting and running out of fuel.

He confirmed that the Israeli bombing of health facilities led to the death of 65 medical staff and the destruction of 25 ambulances.
