The Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, Gaza, is currently facing a humanitarian crisis, with over 30,000 displaced individuals in nearby schools lacking basic necessities such as water, food, baby formula, and medicine, according to Dr. Ashref Al-Qudra, a spokesman for the Ministry of Health in Gaza. The hospital, which is serving 400 patients, is suffering from a severe shortage of medical supplies, anaesthetics, painkillers, specialized medical practitioners, food, and fuel due to the siege imposed by Israel. The European Hospital in Gaza is also sheltering 22,000 people amid ongoing intensive fighting in the area, leading to extremely crowded and inhumane conditions. The WHO and partners delivered essential medical supplies to the Nasser Medical Complex on January 29, but the situation remains dire.
