Gaza hospitals under strain: Israeli siege puts patients in danger.
Hospitals in Gaza have been treating the injured since the conflict began, but they are continually overburdened. Many patients have no option but to sleep on the floor; some need assistance that hospitals cannot offer. Patients cannot undergo critical care abroad since the Rafah border to Egypt has been closed. The Israeli embargo is also depriving Gaza's hospitals of vital medical supplies, exacerbating the crisis. Doctors warn that if the siege is not lifted, many more people will die, and they urge international groups to put pressure on Israel to open the bridge and allow help.
