Healthcare has been a primary casualty of the recent conflict in Gaza, a 365-square-kilometre territory of 2 million residents. By the time a tenuous ceasefire agreement was reached in late January 2025, after more than 500 days of bombardment and heavy artillery attacks, at least 47 354 Palestinians had been killed and 111 563 others injured. More than 92% of the housing units had been destroyed or damaged, and practically the entire population had been displaced, requiring emergency shelter and essential household items.
医疗保健成为了加沙地带近期冲突的主要受害者,加沙是一个面积365平方公里、有200万居民的地区。在经过500多天的轰炸和重炮袭击后,2025年1月底达成了脆弱的停火协议,此时至少47354名巴勒斯坦人丧生,另有111563人受伤。超过92%的住房单元被摧毁或损坏,几乎全部人口流离失所,急需应急住所和基本生活用品。
