Gaza Health Ministry: Israeli occupation deliberately undermines health system
GAZA, June 03 (YPA) – The Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip stated on Tuesday that the Israeli occupation is deliberately undermining and stifling the health system in the strip by evacuating areas where hospitals and healthcare centers are located.
The ministry said in a statement that “the recent evacuations in Khan Yunis Governorate pose a direct threat to putting the Nasser Medical Complex out of service.”
It noted that the Nasser Medical Complex is the only hospital in the southern Gaza Strip that provides specialized services that are threatened with disruption.
The ministry noted that dozens of patients and wounded in intensive care, operating rooms, and emergency rooms, as well as children in the neonatal wards, face certain death if the complex is out of service.
