Hospitals, health system are at 'breaking point' in Gaza: WHO
Hospitals and the health system in the Gaza Strip are at a "breaking point," the UN World Health Organization said in a release Thursday.
"Hospitals have only a few hours of electricity each day as they are forced to ration depleting fuel reserves and rely on generators to sustain the most critical functions," the WHO said in the release. "Even these functions will have to cease in a few days, when fuel stocks are due to run out."
WHO said it documented 34 attacks on health care in Gaza since Saturday, Oct. 7. These attacks have resulted in "the death of 11 health workers on duty, 16 injuries and damages to 19 health facilities and 20 ambulances," the release said.
