Over 6% of Gaza's 2.3 Million Population Killed or Injured in 1 year of Israeli Assault: WHO

About 24,090 people have life-altering injuries without rehabilitation, while over 485,000 face mental health issues from before the conflict.

‘They tied our hands behind our backs, on our knees, our heads on the floors…thirteen hours without food, water, or the bathroom even.’

Far from being an isolated incident, Doctor Rebecca Inglis, an intensive care doctor and co-founder of Gaza Medic Voices, says that the attacks on healthcare workers are systemic. ‘The use of violence and degrading treatment against doctors, nurses and paramedics are recurring themes in the testimonies we have collected.’ Inglis says detainees are being denied family contact, medical care and legal counsel. ‘There is a complete lack of transparency regarding their whereabouts. This is in flagrant violation of international humanitarian law.’

She describes horrific examples of torture and doctors being ‘specifically targeted’ by Israeli forces. ‘They were forced to strip. There were a variety of forms of humiliation. They were getting hit in the face, there were dogs involved, there was electricity involved — absolutely horrendous things were happening,’ she says.

‘It’s a Death Zone’: How Israel Destroyed Gaza’s Healthcare

Medics tortured and executed, operations without anaesthetic, patients dying from starvation. Gaza's medical workers speak to Tribune about Israel's apocalyptic war on healthcare.

‘Patients in dire need for blood transfusion’ in Gaza

The Gaza Strip has 1,100 patients with chronic kidney disease who need three treatments a week. Patients suffering from chronic kidney disease are dependent on life-saving dialysis treatment and that’s under threat because of Israel’s siege on Gaza. Israeli’s attacks on Gaza have left majority of hospitals out of service. The few that remain partly operational are facing severe shortages of medicine, supplies and medical staff. “Three members of my family must have their blood cleansed,” a Palestinian told Al Jazeera. “The journey to the hospital is a challenge. A shortage of food and nutrition and a lack of clean water all adds to our suffering. We are losing weight and hit with fatigue and exhaustion. Many patients are now in a dire need for blood transfusion, which is not available.” Subscribe to our channel http://bit.ly/AJSubscribe Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/AJEnglish Find us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/aljazeera Check our website: https://www.aljazeera.com/ Check out our Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/aljazeeraenglish/ Download AJE Mobile App: https://aje.io/AJEMobile #Palestine #Gaza #Israel #GazaHealthcareCrisis #GazaHumanitarianCrisis #Starvation #GazaStarvation #Israel #GazaWar #IsraelHamasWar #IsraelGazaWar #GazaShortages #GazaAid #IsraelPalestineWar #WFP #UN #GazaAirRaids #GazaAirStrikes #GazaUnderAttack #IsraelWar #IsraelPalestineWar #IsraelGazaWar #GazaHospitals #GazaBombardment #GazaRefugeeCamps
