Doctors and aid workers have warned of epidemics given the dire humanitarian situation and with the enclave\u2019s health system on its knees.<\/p>\n
The humanitarian situation in these two provinces is worsening due to the severe shortage of food and essential services, accompanied by the destruction of homes, properties, and infrastructure. Palestinians say they are fighting daily \"battles for survival.\"<\/p>\n
Ahmed al-Farra, the head of the paediatric ward at Nasser hospital in Khan Younis in southern Gaza, said this week that his ward was overrun with children suffering extreme dehydration, causing kidney failure in some cases, while severe diarrhoea was four times higher than normal.<\/p>\n
He said he was aware of 15 to 30 cases of hepatitis A in Khan Younis in the past two weeks: \u201cThe incubation period of the virus is three weeks to a month, so after a month there will be an explosion in the number of cases of hepatitis A.\u201d<\/p>\n
In its latest report on conditions in Gaza, the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said the WHO has reported cases of meningitis, chickenpox, jaundice and upper respiratory tract infections.<\/p>\n
Since the truce between Israel and Hamas collapsed on December 1, hundreds of thousands of people have been forced to shelter in abandoned buildings, schools and tents. Many more are sleeping in the open with little access to toilets or water to bathe, aid workers said.<\/p>\n
Twenty-one of Gaza\u2019s 36 hospitals are closed, 11 are partially functional and four are minimally functional, according to WHO figures from December 10.<\/p>\n
