Gaza doctors ‘becoming too weak to treat patients’ as hunger crisis deepens

The Gaza healthcare system is facing a deepening crisis as medical staff struggle with increasing hunger and lack of food, rendering them too weak to provide adequate care for patients. Doctors and medical personnel have reported being unable to function properly due to their own malnourishment, as hospitals are overwhelmed with injured and malnourished civilians. The situation has become increasingly dire, with almost a dozen medical staff across the territory describing their desperate search for food and declining physical health. This crisis highlights the broader humanitarian challenges faced by the people of Gaza, as the lack of resources and ongoing conflict continue to take a toll on both the medical infrastructure and the well-being of the population.
