Despite the declared ceasefire, thousands of victims are still believed to be trapped under the rubble and scattered in the streets. Ambulance and civil defense crews are struggling to reach them due to the massive destruction and dangerous conditions caused by continuous Israeli violations.
The Gaza Health Ministry has repeatedly warned of a worsening humanitarian crisis, with hospitals overwhelmed, infrastructure devastated, and essential services collapsing under the weight of more than two years of relentless attacks.[]
