Doctors in Khan Younis overwhelmed as casualties of new Israeli invasion mount

Nasser hospital director pleas for medical supplies and says staff cannot save influx of patients as IDF continues assault

Doctors in the largest hospital in Gaza's southern city of Khan Younis pleaded for supplies from a facility overwhelmed by wounded people, as Israeli airstrikes, artillery fire and fighting on the streets continued for a second day.

There's no space for more patients. There's no space in the operating theatres. There is a lack of medical supplies, so we cannot save our patients," Mohammed Zaqout, the director of Nasser hospital, told AFP.
