Gaza’s Health Ministry has warned of a critical collapse in the territory’s healthcare system as Israel’s blockade continues despite a declared ceasefire. In a press briefing at Al-Shifa Hospital, officials reported that 52% of essential medicines and 71% of medical equipment are now unavailable, leaving hospitals unable to meet basic patient needs.
According to ministry data, supplies of 321 essential drugs have completely run out, while shortages in emergency and intensive care services have reached 38%. Around 200,000 patients risk losing emergency care, and 1,000 cancer patients are reportedly without treatment due to a 70% shortage in oncology drugs. Dialysis services for 650 kidney patients have also been disrupted. Cardiac surgeries and orthopedic operations have largely been suspended due to the lack of critical materials.
Health officials have appealed for immediate international intervention to restore medical supply routes. Humanitarian agencies warn that continued restrictions could lead to a full-scale health disaster in Gaza if aid access is not urgently restored.
