Israel's blockade threatens patients & doctor: Largest hospital could turn into 'graveyard'

The director of Gaza's largest health facility says a fuel shortage is threatening to turn it into "a graveyard." Dr Muhammad Abu Salamiyah says life-saving units at the Al Shifa Medical Complex in north Gaza will shut down soon because of Israel's blockade. The dialysis unit has already been closed to save on fuel, which is running critically low. More than 100 premature babies and 350 dialysis patients are at risk. Israel has blocked fuel, water, medicine, and other critical supplies from entering Gaza since March.
