Gaza’s largest functioning hospital, Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, faces imminent shutdown due to fuel shortages and intensified Israeli military operations. Doctors warn dozens in intensive care may die if generators fail. Israeli tanks reportedly advanced to within 200m of the hospital, firing at displaced persons' camps and burning tents. Though forces later withdrew, medics remain trapped. Staff say “we are closer to death than life.” WHO calls the hospital “one massive trauma ward.” Fuel deliveries have not reached the facility. Over 57,700 Gazans have died since the war began following Hamas’s 2023 attack that killed 1,200 in Israel. (PC: BBC)
