Gaza Hospitals Crisis: Surgeon Reveals Devastating Reality
Gaza Hospitals Face Catastrophic Shortages: Surgeon's Account Gaza, occupied Palestine – The dire conditions in Gaza's hospitals are laid bare in a recent video featuring Dr. Abdullah Thawaba, a vascular surgeon from the UK. Dr. Thawaba, who recently volunteered in Gaza, describes a scene where even after complex surgeries, patients die due to a lack of post-operative care and essential supplies. "We do complex surgery and you lose the patient because there is no post-operative care, no nutritional support," he explains, highlighting the devastating consequences of the ongoing shortages. He details how Palestinians are forced to spend their days searching for food, water, and electricity to charge their phones, all increasingly scarce since Israel's unilateral ceasefire breach in March. Dr. Thawaba's account underscores the urgent warnings from the United Nations and relief organizations about the risk of famine and disease outbreaks in the besieged strip. His testimony adds a human face to the mounting international pressure on Israel to ensure the safe and sustainable passage of humanitarian aid. The situation in Gaza is a stark reminder of the ongoing human cost of conflict and the critical need for international intervention to alleviate the suffering of its people.
