GAZA, (PIC)
The Kuwait Specialized Hospital in Rafah in southern Gaza has warned that it may be forced to cease operations, announcing that its remaining medical supplies are expected to last just one more week.
In a statement on Saturday, the Kuwait Specialized Hospital also warned against the imminent collapse of the healthcare system in Gaza amid severe shortages of medicine, medical supplies, and food.
“The situation has worsened due to the continued closure of border crossings and the disruption of humanitarian aid deliveries,” the hospital said.
“More than 75 percent of essential medications are unavailable, significantly hampering the facility’s ability to treat patients … the current medical stocks may not last more than one week,” it added.
It appealed to international humanitarian organizations to take immediate action and prevent a looming health and medical disaster in Gaza.
