Premature babies at Gaza’s largest hospital, Al-Shifa, are being wrapped in foil and placed next to hot water as a desperate measure to keep them alive due to the lack of oxygen supplies and ongoing Israeli airstrikes. The hospital’s director, Dr. Muhammad Abu Salmiya, revealed that several newborns have died, and the facility is unable to function properly as operating rooms are out of service. The dire situation is exacerbated by a fuel blockade, causing a deepening humanitarian crisis. Al-Quds Hospital, another major facility, is also out of service. Inside Al-Shifa, conditions are described as catastrophic, with staff working by candlelight and essential services disrupted. International calls for a ceasefire intensify, but Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu insists on conditions for a halt in fighting related to the release of hostages held by Hamas. The Israeli military claims to have offered fuel to Al-Shifa, but Hamas allegedly blocked its delivery, leading to a dispute over the situation. The World Health Organization confirms that Al-Shifa has been without power for three days, rendering it non-functional as a hospital.
