Gaza Faces 47% Drug Shortage
The Ministry of Health in Gaza Strip announced that the drug shortage has reached 47%, with cancer and blood disease medications topping the list of missing items at 61%. The statement clarified that the shortage of medicines and medical supplies significantly impacts the capacity of healthcare institutions to provide treatment services, especially for cancer patients, putting their lives at risk. The shortage has coincided with a severe decline in vital laboratory diagnostic materials, threatening the suspension of many essential diagnostic and treatment services. The ministry called on the international community and humanitarian organizations to intervene urgently to supply essential provisions, as Israel's destruction of healthcare facilities and refusal to allow the entry of medicines since October 2023 further exacerbate the health crisis in the Gaza Strip.
