Gaza: Critical shortage of fuel and medical supplies amidst incessant Zionist attacks

GAZA – The director of field hospitals in Gaza, Marwan Al Hams, stated on Saturday that the medical sector is suffering from a severe “critical shortage of fuel, medicine, and medical equipment.”

Al Hams, quoted by media outlets, revealed that “65% of the medication stocks have been depleted along with over 85% of medical supplies, which is impacting the entire healthcare system, including intensive care units and operating rooms.”

He also emphasised that “all burn care units in hospitals have been destroyed by the occupying forces, leaving Gaza without a complete facility for burn treatment despite the urgent need due to injuries caused by airstrikes.”

Accordingly, Al Hams stressed the “urgent need for more field hospitals to help cope with the overwhelming demands, as the Zionist occupying forces deliberately destroy health infrastructure and impose a blockade on the medical sector.”
