Gaza, MINA – Dr. Mohamed Abu Salmiya, the director of Shifa Hospital in Gaza, has reported that the hospital’s medical teams are overwhelmed by the rising number of wounded civilians as a result of intense Israeli airstrikes and bombardment, Palinfo reported.
In a press statement on Tuesday, Dr. Abu Salmiya confirmed that the hospital has run out of essential medicines and medical supplies due to the ongoing Israeli blockade of Gaza.
He stressed that the healthcare system is unable to cope with the large number of injured, with the closure of crossings making it impossible to replenish stocks.
“We are witnessing a full-fledged crime committed by the occupation,” Dr. Abu Salmiya stated, condemning the ongoing violence.
