Gaza's hospitals remain overwhelmed by crowds of wounded civilians amid an ongoing health crisis exacerbated by the ongoing Israeli aggression. 

WHO Health Emergency Officer Sean Casey expressed deep concerns about the collapse of the healthcare sector in Gaza, marked by obstacles hindering the entry of aid, lack of permits for essential items, and a severe shortage of medical staff in the few remaining operational hospitals. 

In a recent visit to the region, he further pointed out the diminished capacity of hospitals and the shortage of medical personnel. 

IOF preventing aid delivery into Gaza, aid workers at risk

The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) stated that the occupation has been denying access to aid missions delivering medicine and fuel to the northern part of the Gaza Strip. 

In the first two weeks of January, according to OCHA, only 24% of planned aid missions delivering basic human needs from food, medicine, and water were able to enter Gaza.

In addition, around 95% of missions involving the allocation of fuel and medicines to water reservoirs were stopped and denied access to enter by the occupation. Out of the latter, five missions were to aid the Central Drug Store, four to Jabalia Medical Center, and eight to aid four critical reservoirs and water and waste pumps.

In at least two reported instances, occupation forces detained and attacked convoy members. This, along with the deliberate prevention of aid by the occupation, shows that the behavior of the IOF is compromising the capacity of humanitarian agencies to operate safely and effectively, according to OCHA.

Other UN agencies, the World Food Programme (WFP), the United Nations Children's Fund(UNICEF), and the World Health Organization (WHO), urged the opening of new routes that would allow the passage of humanitarian aid while ensuring the safety of Palestinians and aid workers.
