Occupation destroys 70% of ambulances
The Israeli occupation authorities have imposed a strict ban on the entry of maintenance equipment and ambulance spare parts into Gaza, threatening a complete shutdown of the emergency and field medical services there. More than 70% of the ambulance fleet has been damaged due to Israeli destruction, with 39 vehicles destroyed and 17 others in dire need of essential repairs that are currently unavailable. Additionally, 130 vehicles belonging to the Palestinian Red Crescent Society have been completely destroyed. The sector is suffering from a depletion of spare parts stocks, and the worsening situation has led to ambulances operating with worn-out tires and engines at risk of breaking down. This is compounded by the global rise in spare parts prices, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis and putting lives at risk.
