"Desperate Conditions: Inside Gaza's Struggling Healthcare System"

Doctors in Gaza are struggling to provide adequate medical care due to a shortage of supplies, overcrowded hospitals, and ongoing conflict. Patients are reportedly being operated on without anesthesia, chronic conditions are going untreated, and people with severe injuries are left to scream for hours due to a lack of painkillers. The World Health Organization has described the healthcare situation in Gaza as "beyond words", with many hospitals non-operational and limited access to medical supplies. The Israel Defense Forces have stated that they are allowing humanitarian aid into Gaza, including medical supplies, but aid organizations report repeated access restrictions and denials.
