Shortage of dialysis equipment deepens health crisis for patients in Gaza

DEIR AL-BALAH, GAZA - MARCH 15: Palestinian kidney failure patients are seen being treated on a dialysis machine at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah, Gaza on March 15, 2025. Israel's closure of border crossings threatens the lives of dialysis patients in the Gaza Strip. The inadequacy of dialysis equipment and the increase in the number of patients further deepens the health crisis as the prevention of the entry of medical equipment and fuel disrupts the treatment of kidney failure patients.
