‘Dangerous’ situation at Nasser Hospital as Israeli siege continues

The largest hospital in besieged Khan Younis city remains crippled and faces collapse as Israel’s offensive continues nearby, Al Jazeera reports.

Gaza’s Health Ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra said in a statement that Nasser Hospital lacked anaesthesia and other medicine for intensive care units, and had “dangerous” shortages of blood.

“These are the only painkillers left we have. If you want to count them, they are only for maybe five or four patients,” Dr Muhammad Harara said.
