Gaza: A Street Graveyard

A dire environmental disaster looms over Gaza, as the streets of the northern Strip become graveyards for countless Palestinians killed in relentless Israeli airstrikes, warned Mohammed Abu Afash, Director of the Medical Relief Organization in Gaza.

Unretrieved bodies, abandoned amid the chaos, now rot in the open. The haunting scene is worsened by stray animals feeding on the corpses, creating an ominous health crisis that threatens to engulf the besieged region.

The humanitarian crisis deepens as hospitals, already battered by bombings, are left without surgeons to tend to the wounded. Medical staff face crippling shortages of supplies, with access to northern Gaza blocked and healthcare workers themselves targeted by Israeli forces.

Abu Afash’s grim message paints a picture not just of suffering but of an unfolding catastrophe with devastating human and environmental consequences.
