A recent report from a Medical NGO has shed light on the dire situation in the southern Gaza city of Rafah, where the necessary conditions for survival are absent. The medical facilities in the area are overwhelmed and operating beyond their limits, leading to a marked deterioration in people's health.
The devastation in Rafah goes beyond the casualties from Israeli bombardments and airstrikes, with deaths resulting from disruptions to critical healthcare being described as 'silent killings' that are equally tragic. The report highlights a significant increase in rates of acute malnutrition, with hundreds of cases recorded among children under five and pregnant women.
