Doctor in Gaza says ‘worst manmade medical disaster in modern history’
Dr Mads Gilbert, a physician who worked in Gaza for more than 20 years, says the healthcare system collapse continues, Al Jazeera reports.
The mayor of Gaza City in the north reported it hasn’t received “one drop of fuel” in months.
In the south, hospitals are overwhelmed with the wounded.
“It is a horrible situation. The healthcare capacity is not sufficient at all to handle this massive number of 61,000 injured. They are lacking everything, they don’t have antibiotics, anaesthetics, IV fluids,” Gilbert told Al Jazeera.
“This is a systematic manmade disaster. This is planned and executed by the Israeli government with the full support from the US. It’s the worst manmade medical disaster in modern history,” Gilbert said
