Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in the Gaza Strip announced that its operating rooms have ceased functioning after the hospital's electrical generators went completely out of service.
The Ministry of Health in Gaza reported a rapidly worsening humanitarian and medical crisis at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital after Dr. Raed Hussein, director of the facility, confirmed that the breakdown of its depleting power generators has reached a critical stage following the failure of the fourth backup unit.
Dr. Hussein explained that the hospital’s dilapidated generators, operating beyond their capacity for over a year, can no longer meet the demands of essential departments, leading to the suspension of operating rooms and placing dialysis units, neonatal intensive care, intensive care, and laboratory services at imminent risk of shutdown.
