Severely injured patients trapped in Gaza’s hospitals as evacuations are halted
Destruction of buildings, too few ambulances and having to work in ‘red zones’ all adding to trauma.
There have been no medical evacuations from northern Gaza for more than a month so severely injured people are trapped in damaged hospitals where they cannot get adequate treatment, a leading medical charity has warned.
Ambulances need urgent access to take the most vulnerable patients for specialist care, said Patrick Münz, head of mission in Gaza for German medical charity Cadus.
There are no intensive care units operating in northern Gaza, so Palestinians most seriously injured in Israeli airstrikes and fighting on the ground have died.
But dozens of patients in the two functioning hospitals in Gaza City have been stabilised after amputations or with severe burns, and could survive if they got treatment in Rafah or beyond Gaza.
Cadus is working with the World Health Organization trying to get ambulances into the north for evacuations, travelling with UN aid convoys bringing food or medical supplies.
“The people we will transport at least at the beginning are critical care patients, but who are stable,” said Münz, adding that there had been no transports for over a month. “They should have been evacuated yesterday already.”
