The Israeli aggression on Gaza has affected 84% of health facilities in the besieged Gaza Strip, the UN Palestinian Refugee Agency (UNRWA) said on Tuesday.

''Due to continued bombardment and access restrictions, only 4 out of 22 UNRWA health facilities are still operational,'' the UN agency added in a statement on X.

UNRWA also shared photos of the damage incurred by the Sheikh Radwan Health Center in Israeli attacks on northern Gaza.

According to the UN, 85% of Gaza's population has been displaced internally due to Israeli aggression, leading to severe shortages of food, clean water, and medicine. Additionally, 60% of the enclave's infrastructure has been either damaged or destroyed.

Earlier on Tuesday, the Israeli occupation tightened its siege on the Nasser Medical Complex and heavily targeted its vicinity, the spokesperson for the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza, Ashraf al-Qudra confirmed, highlighting the grave risk threatening thousands of people inside the health facility.

Al-Qudra stressed that the Israeli occupation is putting the lives of 300 medical personnel, 450 injured Palestinians, and 10,000 displaced people, who lack any source of nutrition, in immediate danger amid a severe shortage of anesthetic materials, intensive care, and surgical procedures.
