(Evidemment le blocus israélien, bien avant cela empêche l'arrivée de médicaments. Donc, non seulement, à Gaza, ils n'ont pas de stock, mais, ils n'ont pas de médicaments tout court. note de rené)

Gaza's medical teams are unable to sufficiently treat those wounded in Israeli air strikes because the Strip lacks the necessary medical equipment and drugs, the Director of the Palestine Red Crescent, Bashar Murad, warned yesterday.

"We have to deal with a large number of victims," Murad told Russia Today. "The situation in Gaza is very bad, and we are under siege. We do not have the freedom to leave Gaza, and we are facing a shortage of medicines and medical equipment is broken."

Israel's bombing campaign has led to thousands of injuries, he added, and has further exacerbated the electricity cuts and shortage in medical equipment.

"We have lost some vital issues, like health services for COVID-19. We ask for help for Gaza but still we have received no humanitarian aid from outside," Murad added.

Since 10 May, Gaza has been witnessing successive Israeli air raids which have killed more than 230 people, including 65 children, and injured over 1,700.
