The Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip confirmed that the Israeli occupation's deliberate targeting of electrical generators is exacerbating the health crisis in the Gaza Strip and threatening the remaining functioning medical facilities, particularly in the northern part of the Strip.
The ministry said in a statement on Wednesday that the occupation is seeking to destroy electromechanical systems to put as many hospitals as possible out of service, noting that the Indonesian Hospital was completely out of service after three of its electrical generators and fuel tanks were bombed.
The ministry added that the health situation in northern Gaza has become catastrophic, due to a lack of resources and a shortage of oil and spare parts needed to operate generators in various hospitals. It explained that the remaining medical facilities are operating on limited quantities of fuel, threatening to disrupt urgent health services for the wounded and sick at any moment.
The Ministry of Health renewed its urgent appeal to the international community and humanitarian organizations to pressure the occupation to immediately allow the entry of generators and fuel, saving the health system from complete collapse.
