Gaza: Decline of Basic Needs
The city of Gaza Strip is facing a severe humanitarian crisis due to the destruction of infrastructure and ongoing attacks. Hospitals are suffering from a critical shortage of oxygen (only 12 out of 34 oxygen stations and 4 out of 30 ventilators are operational), and medicine supplies are severely limited, with shortages reaching up to 47%. This includes essential medications for cancer, blood disorders, women, and children. The operational capacity of the healthcare sector has been jeopardized, having lost about 75% of its capabilities. Additionally, 75% of Gaza's water systems have been destroyed, forcing residents to rely heavily on water trucks under difficult conditions, with a water deficit reaching 20,000 cubic meters daily. Wastewater and waste management services are also deteriorating due to a lack of fuel and spare parts, aggravating health and environmental conditions, with garbage accumulating and cases of rats, insects, and disease rising. Many residential areas and health facilities are significantly damaged, and the capacity of basic infrastructure has declined, reflecting the worsening living conditions amid continued blockade and restrictions on the entry of fuel and supplies.
