The “Doctors Worldwide Türkiye” organization announced that the Israeli ongoing airstrikes had completely destroyed its accredited clinic in Gaza, where it provided health services to the Palestinians.

The organization reported, in a statement, that the clinic, which is located in the center of Gaza City and has been operational since 2015, was completely demolished during the ongoing Israeli assaults that began on Oct.7, 2023.

This development has significantly impacted the enclave’s healthcare services, it highlighted.

The clinic had been vacant since the start of the Israeli attacks and was a central healthcare provider in Gaza City. Despite its destruction, Doctors Worldwide Türkiye continues to offer medical assistance in southern Gaza, primarily operating out of Kuwait Hospital.

The organization has managed the dwindling medical and consumable supplies in Gaza by ensuring continuous delivery of medical and aid materials from Egypt via the Rafah Border Crossing.

The organization has reached over 113,000 Gazans since the onset of the attacks, providing essential supplies such as medicines, hygiene kits, primary food items, and baby and patient diapers.

It pointed out that 30 hospitals, 53 health centers, 150 health institutions, and 122 ambulances were out of service due to recent attacks in Gaza.

Since October 7, Israel has been waging a devastating war on the Gaza Strip, leaving tens of thousands of civilian victims, most of them women and children, in addition to an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe and massive infrastructure destruction.
