War and shortages push Gaza hospitals to breaking point

Gaza’s collapsing health system leaves dialysis patients, amputees and trauma survivors without vital care.

The healthcare system in Gaza is on the verge of collapse due to ongoing war and severe shortages. Hospitals are struggling to provide even the most basic services. Dialysis patients, who require regular treatment to survive, are unable to access life-saving procedures. Amputees, many of whom have lost limbs in the conflict, lack necessary follow-up care and rehabilitation. Trauma survivors, including those with severe injuries, are being left without critical medical attention. The combination of war and resource shortages has pushed Gaza’s hospitals to their breaking point, leaving vulnerable patients without the care they desperately need. This crisis underscores the dire humanitarian situation in the region, where the health system is collapsing and the most vulnerable are paying the highest price.
