The Gaza Siege: Israel’s Choking of the Hospitals – Quotable

In a recent video, Dr. Mads Gilbert, a Norwegian physician who has spent time working in Gaza, describes the dire situation facing hospitals in the region. According to Dr. Gilbert, the state of hospitals in Gaza is dire for three main reasons: the overwhelming number of casualties in need of immediate medical attention, the continued Israeli attacks on hospitals, and the critical lack of electricity needed to operate these vital facilities.

The ongoing siege on Gaza has had devastating consequences for the healthcare system, with hospitals struggling to cope with the influx of patients in need of urgent care. Dr. Gilbert’s firsthand account sheds light on the difficult conditions faced by medical professionals working under siege, risking their own lives to provide essential medical treatment to those in need.

As the crisis in Gaza deepens, it is essential to bring attention to the plight of hospitals and healthcare workers in the region. The international community must act swiftly to provide the necessary support and resources to ensure that hospitals in Gaza can continue to operate and provide life-saving care to those in need.
