“We received some cases where the parents wrote the names of their children on the legs and abdomen,” Dr. Abdul Rahman Al Masri, the head of the emergency department Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, told CNN. He said parents were worried that “anything could happen,” and no one would be able to identify their children. “This means that they feel they are targeted at any moment and can be injured or martyred,” Al Masri added. Meanwhile hospital are running out of medicine, water and electricity, while hundreds of injured Palestinians continue to seek treatment, doctors and health workers in Gaza told CNN.

Once the generators stop, hospital director Iyad Abu Zahar fears that the babies in the ward, unable to breathe on their own, will perish. Doctors treating premature babies across Gaza are grappling with similar fears. At least 130 premature babies are at “grave risk” across six neonatal units, aid workers said. Limited fuel supplies inside Gaza were being sent to hospital generators. To ration dwindling supplies, Muhanna said all scheduled operations were stopped and the hospital devoted all its resources to emergencies and childbirths.

Like many Palestinians in Gaza and elsewhere he feels Arab states have not done enough to support the Palestinian cause, especially those who have normalised ties with Israel. Israel reiterated it would not allow aid through its crossing with Gaza until Hamas released about 200 hostages seized during its cross-border attack on Israel on Oct. 7. The Gaza health ministry said 3,478 Palestinians have been killed and 12,065 wounded in Israeli air strikes on the besieged enclave since Oct. 7. Israel and Egypt have upheld a blockade of Gaza since Hamas took control of the territory in 2007, tightly controlling the movement goods and people. But the Hamas attack, the biggest against Israel since the 1973 Yom Kippur war, followed by the fiercest ever Israeli strikes on Gaza, has created a monumental crisis.

As news of a deadly explosion in a Gaza hospital compound spread across the Palestinian enclave, doctors at the nearby Shuhada Al-Aqsa hospital wondered whether to evacuate staff, patients and the hundreds of people who had taken refuge there. “Where could we go? No place is safe now,” said Abdel Rahman Bassem, a 24-year-old intern. The doctors and patients remained.

Gazan authorities have started using ice cream trucks to store dead bodies, Reuters reported. AdvertisementAdvertisementHealth officials in Gaza are storing bodies in ice cream trucks as morgues and cemeteries run out of space, Reuters reported on Sunday. As the Israeli air strikes continue, officials have started using freezer trucks as temporary morgues, per Reuters. Reuters reported that ice cream trucks are also being used to store bodies because it's too risky to move the corpses to hospitals. Doha-based Al Jazeera, which is owned by the Qatari state, also reported on Saturday that ice cream trucks and refrigerated food vehicles were being used to store bodies.

Israel has unleashed the fiercest bombardment on the Gaza Strip to hit back at the Palestinian militant group Hamas after it carried out the deadliest attack on Israel for decades. “The hospital morgue can only take 10 bodies, so we have brought in ice cream freezers from the ice cream factories in order to store the huge numbers of martyrs,” said Dr. Yasser Ali of the Shuhada Al-Aqsa hospital in Deir Al-Balah. The freezer trucks, whose sides still show advertising images of smiling children enjoying ice cream cones, are normally used to make deliveries to supermarkets. Authorities in Gaza said Israeli air strikes had killed more than 2,300 people, a quarter of them children, with nearly 10,000 wounded so far. “The Gaza Strip is in crisis and if the war continues in this way we will not be able to bury the dead.

GAZA, Aug 14 (Reuters) - A heatwave and worsening power cuts in Gaza have left some of those living in the overcrowded Palestinian enclave struggling to breathe. Power cuts, which are unpredictable at the best of times, now last for around 12 hours a day instead of 10 as demand for air conditioning soars. "Power cuts deprive patients of their right to regular oxygen ventilation and that pushes patients to keep visiting hospital," Haj said. Alongside cases of acquired pulmonary fibrosis, Gaza health officials say more than 300 people in the enclave were born with cystic fibrosis, which causes the lungs and digestive system to become clogged with sticky mucus. Abdel-Majeed Al-Sbakhi, who has diabetes as well as cystic fibrosis, was among those forced in hospital by the heat.
