Israeli evacuation orders and attacks 'devastating Gaza's health system'

Gaza [Palestine], July 26: Tens of thousands more Palestinians have been displaced again this week in Gaza after the Israeli military issued new evacuation orders, something the UN reports is further devastating the battered health system.
"People can't access essential healthcare services, particularly ones suffering from chronic diseases," according to the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA.
"Hospitals are stretched way beyond their capacity."
The Israeli military earlier confirmed bombing at least 60 targets throughout the enclave with health authorities in Gaza recording at least 30 fatalities in the latest 24-hour reporting period.
The Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) has said the Israeli military is pounding the Khan Younis governorate in southern Gaza for a fourth consecutive day, forcing thousands more people to flee.
"In the so-called 'humanitarian area' in al-Mawasi, there is no space even for a single tent due to the overwhelming number of people desperate for safety," PRCS said.
"The Israeli occupation prevents displaced persons from Gaza and the north from returning to their homes."
According to the UN, at least 150,000 Palestinians fled Khan Younis earlier this week after Israel launched its latest invasion of the city.
Israeli military forces fired live rounds at an ambulance that was evacuating an injured person in Khan Younis, where a new ground invasion is expanding, according to the PRCS.
Meanwhile Gaza's Health Ministry said Israel has killed 39,175 people in Gaza offensive since October 7.
Israel's military offensive in the Gaza Strip has also wounded 90,403 people since October 7, the Ministry said.
A total of 30 Palestinians have been killed and 146 wounded in the latest 24-hour reporting period, it said in a statement. The bodies of a number of victims are still under the rubble and on the roads, and ambulance and civil defence teams cannot reach them, it added. (Agencies)
