2023-2024 Israel-Hamas conflict severely damaged Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza, leaving it partially operational.

Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza, once a cornerstone of healthcare, is now a symbol of destruction due to the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. Following severe damage from Israeli military operations in late 2023 and early 2024, only the emergency department has reopened, leaving much of the facility in ruins. Israel alleges Hamas used the hospital as a command center, a claim Hamas refutes. The World Health Organization reports minimal operational clinics, forcing the wounded to rely on international field hospitals for care.
