The World Health Organization warns Gaza's healthcare system is at a breaking point" under Israel's unabated bombing of civilians, and its blockade of resources and medical supplies. The WHO also reports dozens of attacks on hospitals and ambulances. We speak with Dr. Zaher Sahloul, a physician specializing in disaster relief with the international medical nonprofit MedGlobal, which is supporting doctors in Gaza. He calls the situation there beyond catastrophic" as the number of critically injured patients far outstrips available hospital beds. Sahloul says the U.S. must tell Israel to stop the hell that is raining on Gaza."
