Gaza Health: Cessation of Chemotherapy Threatens Patients
The Ministry of Health in Gaza has warned of a halt in cancer treatment, confirming that the depletion of specialized medications has led to a complete paralysis of cancer treatment departments. It emphasized that the interruption of treatment protocols puts thousands of patients, including hundreds of children and women, at risk of slow death. The ministry explained that the discontinuation of treatment doses causes aggressive tumor recurrences and threatens the lives of those suffering from cancer, who endure severe pain without access to necessary medications or painkillers due to their inability to travel outside the Gaza Strip for treatment. It called on relevant authorities to intervene urgently to provide the essential medicines, warning of a catastrophic decline in patients' health if the supply continues to be cut off. This comes amid ongoing destruction of healthcare facilities and the blockade on medicines and fuel imposed by Israel since October 2023.
