The closure of the internal medicine and maternity departments at UNRWA’s hospital in Qalqilya has raised fears of a worsening health crisis. Abdul Rahim Jabr, head of the Popular Committee for Refugee Services, said patients would be forced to seek treatment outside the governorate and that Darwish Nazzal Government Hospital, which has around 64 beds, could come under additional pressure. He explained that occupancy in several departments at the UNRWA hospital was nearing 100%, and that the maternity department had been receiving between 120 and 140 cases. He warned that closing the two departments could make access to care even more difficult. He also cautioned about the decision’s impact on staff and their families, and called on UNRWA to disclose the reasons for the closure and seek alternatives that would ensure health services for refugees continue.
