"Medical Crisis: The Devastating Impact of War on Gaza's Children"

A team of international doctors visiting a hospital in central Gaza was shocked by the devastating impact of Israel's war against Hamas on Palestinian children, with hospitals overwhelmed and struggling to care for an increasing number of patients with limited supplies and staff. The war has taken a heavy toll on Gaza's health sector, leaving roughly a dozen of its 36 hospitals only partially functioning, and has resulted in the deaths of over 32,000 Palestinians and injuries to nearly 75,000 more, with roughly half of Gaza's 2.3 million people being 17 or younger. Israel holds Hamas responsible for non-combatants' deaths and injuries, citing the militants' operation from within civilian areas.
