Gaza's medical labs crippled as over half of diagnostic equipment destroyed

Medical sources say more than half of Gaza's laboratory gear has been destroyed, leaving doctors unable to diagnose or monitor patients.

According to medical officials, 52 percent of Gaza's laboratory and chemical analysis equipment has been wiped out, halting essential diagnostic services. The loss threatens daily patient care and hampers treatment decisions. Experts are urging the delivery of modern lab tools to restore capacity. Continued degradation of lab services is eroding the ability of health workers to provide proper care.

Why it matters

The loss of diagnostic tools hampers Gaza's ability to treat illnesses, worsening the humanitarian health crisis.
