How can world powers prevent Israel from attacking medical facilities in Gaza? | Israeli-Palestinian conflict
The United Nations says the health system in Gaza is on the verge of total collapse due to relentless Israeli attacks.
The United Nations says only 16 of Gaza’s 36 hospitals are operating, and even those can only offer partial services.
The UN has confirmed more than 650 Israeli attacks on medical facilities since the start of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in October 2023, killing at least 1,054 health workers.
Israel says Hamas fighters operate from hospitals, but provides little evidence to support its claims.
