More than 3,000 people diagnosed with infectious diseases in one day
A major humanitarian catastrophe is unfolding in Gaza, which is under Israeli blockade and subjected to intense bombardment. In Gaza, where the health system has collapsed, more than 3,000 cases of infectious diseases, mostly among children, have been detected.
In a statement, the Ministry of Health in Gaza announced that numerous cases of diseases such as scabies, diarrhea, chickenpox, skin diseases, and bronchitis have been identified.
The statement said, "3,150 cases of infectious diseases, mostly among children, were detected in health centers in the Gaza Strip in one day."
Emphasizing the insufficiency of drinking and daily-use water and the inability to meet personal hygiene needs, the statement noted, "Infectious diseases are spreading rapidly due to the large crowds in shelters."
Noting that the condition of hospitals is deteriorating, the statement warned against "a major wave of epidemics that will strike the Gaza Strip and will be impossible to control."
Due to the blockade imposed by Israel on the Gaza Strip, a serious energy shortage has emerged, and it was announced that hospital generators are on the verge of stopping as fuel entry into the region is not permitted.

The Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, launched a comprehensive attack on Israel on the morning of October 7, dubbed "Al-Aqsa Flood."
