West Bank faces life-threatening crisis
Palestine, specifically in the West Bank, is suffering from a severe crisis in the availability of medicines and healthcare services due to Israel's withholding of custom revenues. This has led to the depletion of more than 180 essential drug items, including medications for cancer and dialysis. The Ministry of Health indicated a significant decline in stock levels and that patients are facing serious health risks, as the Palestinian government continues to try to secure funding through an emergency budget and by referring critical cases to private hospitals. Meanwhile, the shortage of medicines and the sustainability of the healthcare sector pose major risks to the lives of thousands of patients.
