Gaza's 11000 Cancer Patients at Risk
In Gaza Strip, approximately 11,000 cancer patients face the risk of death due to a severe shortage of oncology medications and necessary treatments, in addition to the destruction of essential health facilities since the start of Israeli assaults in October 2023. The interruption of medicines has led to the suspension of treatment protocols and deprived patients of receiving doses on time, accelerating tumor progression and reducing chances of recovery. Meanwhile, the destruction of treatment centers and diagnostic services prevents thousands of patients from traveling outside the enclave for treatment. The shortage of supplies and medicines, along with the unavailability of radiotherapy and specialized services, constitute some of the greatest challenges, with ongoing deaths resulting from complications and the deterioration of health conditions. This represents a violation of the rights to health and life and directly threatens the lives of patients.
