UNRWA says only 10 of its 26 health centers in Gaza operational
ANKARA (AA) – The UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) has announced only 10 of its 26 health centers in the Gaza Strip are operational.
“Over 1,000 attacks on healthcare facilities in occupied Palestinian territory have been documented by @WHO,” the UNRWA stated on X.
“In #Gaza only 10 out of 26 @UNRWA Health Centres are operational,” the agency lamented.
“Our teams continue to risk their lives every day to provide medical care to families,” it added while calling for a cease-fire.
Flouting a UN Security Council resolution demanding an immediate cease-fire, Israel has faced international condemnation amid its continued brutal offensive on Gaza.
Nearly 38,800 Palestinians have since been killed, mostly women and children, and more than 89,000 injured, according to local health authorities.
Over nine months into the Israeli onslaught, vast tracts of Gaza lie in ruins amid a crippling blockade of food, clean water and medicine.
Israel is accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice, whose latest ruling ordered it to immediately halt its military operation in the southern city of Rafah, where more than 1 million Palestinians had sought refuge from the war before it was invaded on May 6.
