Hospitals in southern Gaza are reportedly facing dire conditions as intense fighting continues in the area. The Palestine Red Crescent Society has raised concerns about the siege on these hospitals, stating that Nasser Hospital, the main medical center in southern Gaza, is running out of critical supplies such as blood, anesthesia, and medications. The Hamas-run Ministry of Health has reported that 350 people have been killed in the region over the weekend.
In addition to the ongoing violence, the region has also been hit by heavy rainfall, further exacerbating the situation for the hundreds of thousands of families who have been displaced. Many of these families, who fled their homes with little to no belongings, are now faced with the destruction caused by the rains. Toddlers are seen walking around in knee-deep water without shoes, and there is a serious concern for the outbreak of diseases in these unsanitary conditions.
