The Palestinian health ministry has warned that half of the patients in the embattled Gaza Strip have become with no medication due to a 52-percent deficit in different medical supplies.
In a recent news conference held in Gaza spokesman for the health ministry Ashraf al-Qudra described the deficit of 52 percent in medical supplies as an unprecedented crisis hitting the hospitals in Gaza.
Qudra pointed out that 14 types of medicinal baby milk (formula) and food supplements that more than 50 children need in Gaza hospitals had run out.
“This is not just passing figures and stories that are told and heard. Some of them pay a harsh price when they lose their sons and daughters who need treatment but find no medication” he said.
