Rafah closure hinders Gaza patient evacuations
The article concerns the closure of the Rafah crossing to patients and wounded individuals listed on approved travel lists, preventing dozens of critical cases from being evacuated. This threatens the lives of cancer patients, those with kidney failure, and individuals with severe injuries, while also disrupting departure schedules. The closure worsens the suffering of patients who have waited weeks to complete travel arrangements, and increases the burden on hospitals and medical teams within the Gaza Strip, especially given the need for specialized treatments that are not available locally. The committee has called on humanitarian and human rights organizations to exert pressure to ensure the crossing remains open continuously, guaranteeing that emergency cases can depart without delay.
