Gaza Hospital Evacuation Could Cause Hundreds of Deaths, Doctor Warns

Gaza Hospital Evacuation Warning: Hundreds of Deaths Feared Gaza City, Palestine – The escalating conflict in Gaza has created a critical situation at the Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis. Dr. Victoria Rose, a plastic and reconstructive surgeon working at the hospital, has issued an urgent warning about the potential for mass casualties if the hospital is forced to evacuate. "If Nasser is evacuated, we are looking at the imminent death of hundreds of patients because we won't be able to take them anywhere," Dr. Rose stated in a video released by Al Jazeera English. She explained that while there are other field hospitals in the area, none possess the capacity or specialized equipment to handle the complex cases treated at Nasser, particularly the lack of ICU capacity and oxygen generation. Dr. Rose's concerns highlight the severe strain on Gaza's medical infrastructure amid the ongoing conflict. The potential loss of Nasser Hospital, a major medical facility, would have devastating consequences for the already vulnerable civilian population. The situation underscores the desperate need for international intervention to ensure the safety of civilians and the continued operation of essential medical services in Gaza.
