Gaza doctors continue saving lives despite dire conditions
\n—————————–
\nAccording to Anadolu Agency, doctors in Gaza are continuing to work despite extreme conditions, including starvation and exhaustion. The article, based on interviews with medical staff, describes how doctors are so weak from a lack of food that some are collapsing in operating rooms and are given IV drips to continue their work.<\/p>\n
The doctors report that a systematic starvation policy and a blockade have made basic food items like bread, sugar, and protein scarce and expensive. This has led to significant weight loss among medical staff, with one ophthalmologist losing 10 kilograms since March. The ongoing conflict has also increased the number of surgeries, forcing doctors to work double and round-the-clock shifts.<\/p>\n
The UN’s World Food Program has warned that the humanitarian situation in Gaza is at an “unprecedented level of deterioration,” with a third of the population going without food for days. The article also mentions that the Gaza Health Ministry reported a high number of casualties among aid seekers due to Israeli attacks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
