Canadian doctor’s shocking observations from Gaza hospitals
The Canadian doctor and surgeon who recently returned from the Gaza Strip called the treatment conditions in Gaza hospitals a disaster. |
Fars News Agency International Group; “In Gaza (hospitals) you have to decide who to save and who to leave.” This is the statement of a Canadian doctor and surgeon who served in Khan Yunis in southern Gaza for two weeks.
In an interview with CNN, Anas al-Qassim emphasized that the medical system in Gaza is worse than I expected, pointing to the impossible decisions that the few doctors left in Gaza in the situation of shortage. Medical equipment and treatment facilities should be adopted.
This Canadian surgeon said that “we had to put stitches in bulk and there was no order in stitching; There is a major lack of medical equipment, things like CT scan machines and essential medical supplies. In the field of medicine, we don’t even have painkillers and antibiotics…”
Gaza’s medical system faced major problems due to the years of siege by the Zionist regime before the war, but according to Anas al-Qassem During the current war, it has reached the limit of 100% collapse due to Israel’s fierce attacks and the intensification of the siege conditions.
Israel has hundreds of hospitals since the start of the war on October 7 and has bombed medical centers in Gaza. According to the Hamas media office, until the end of December, Israeli attacks killed 310 medical staff in Gaza hospitals and put 25 out of 36 hospitals in Gaza completely out of service.
Anas al-Qassim added that Israel’s bombing of Gaza is worse than what he saw in Aleppo, Syria during the Syrian civil war.
