War‑related health crisis in Gaza and West Bank
Ongoing Israeli military operations and attacks on healthcare severely strain Palestine's health system, with mounting casualties and critical shortages.
Israeli military operations in Gaza and the West Bank continue to inflict mass casualties and damage civilian and medical infrastructure, exacerbating an already collapsed health system. Hospitals remain under‑resourced and overcrowded, with persistent shortages of medical supplies, fuel, and clean water. Attacks on health facilities and medical workers have further disrupted emergency and chronic‑care services. In the West Bank, settler violence and closures restrict access to care, while in Gaza overcrowded shelters and destroyed utilities drive spikes in infectious diseases and malnutrition.
