Gazans Turn to Herbs
Displaced people and patients in the Gaza Strip have turned to herbs and oils to ease their pain amid medicine shortages and disrupted medical services. Experts warn, however, that these cannot replace specialized treatment, particularly for chronic illnesses and conditions requiring surgery. Medical sources report that the shortage of medicines has exceeded 50%, while shortages of laboratory testing supplies have surpassed 80% in some estimates. More than 19,500 patients have also been prevented from traveling for treatment, and over 1,200 have died while waiting to be evacuated, prompting calls to open the crossings and allow medicines and medical supplies into Gaza.
