"Israel-Hamas Conflict Takes Toll on Gaza's Hospitals, Threatening Lives"
TL;DR
Gaza hospitals are facing a crisis as they operate with less than a third of their prewar medical staff due to Israeli strikes, which have displaced or forced medical personnel to shelter in place. Doctors and nurses are working nearly 24-hour shifts, rationing care, discharging non-life-threatening patients, and conducting surgeries without anesthesia. The situation highlights the dire humanitarian crisis in Gaza, prompting the U.S. to announce plans to send Iron Dome systems to Israel.
