Severely injured patients trapped in Gaza’s hospitals as evacuations are halted

Destruction of buildings, too few ambulances and having to work in red zones' all adding to trauma

There have been no medical evacuations from northern Gaza for more than a month so severely injured people are trapped in damaged hospitals where they cannot get adequate treatment, a leading medical charity has warned.

Ambulances need urgent access to take the most vulnerable patients for specialist care, said Patrick Munz, head of mission in Gaza for German medical charity Cadus.
