WHO: Last hospital operating in Rafah is no longer in service
Stockholm, June 2 (Hibya) - According to the World Health Organization WHO, the activities of Al-Helal Al-Emirati Hospital, the last hospital operating in Rafah, were terminated.
The hospital is one of three hospitals in the southernmost part of the Gaza Strip, where much of the Palestinian population has fled Israeli bombardment since October 7. According to the Organization, two other hospitals closed in May.
There is almost no medical aid in the city of Rafah. Only one field hospital is partially functioning but is currently impassable due to nearby fighting and can only provide basic assistance to hospitalized patients, WHO writes in an article published in X.
Two field hospitals in the Rafah coastal region are operating, but they are "extremely overcrowded," according to the Organization.
