Rafah crossing blocked again for patient evacuations
The Israeli occupation authorities continue to close the Rafah border crossing to the evacuation of patients and wounded individuals from Gaza for the second consecutive week, leading to a deterioration of the health situation in the sector. Approximately 21,000 patients and injured persons are waiting to be evacuated for treatment outside Gaza, including 5,600 children and 2,800 cancer and tumor patients. Since the closure of the crossing, 2,027 people have died while awaiting evacuation. Estimates suggest that it could take about four years to evacuate all those in need if current travel rates continue, putting many patients' lives at risk and further worsening the fragile healthcare system.
