This article discusses the ongoing conflict between the Israeli military and Hamas in the Gaza Strip, which has caused thousands of Palestinians to flee their homes. The situation has become increasingly dire, with Al-Shifa hospital in Gaza encircled by Israeli troops and UNRWA warning that its aid operations in Gaza will soon cease. The Israeli military has urged Palestinians to flee south through safe corridors, but it is unclear how many have been able to take advantage of this option.

The Palestinian Health Ministry has reported that three major hospitals in Gaza, including the largest medical center, Al Shifa Hospital, have gone "out of service" due to heavy bombardment and intense fighting. This has caused power outages and a fuel shortage, leading to the deaths of three newborns and other patients, as well as 35 babies born prematurely at risk of death. The Health Ministry is pleading for help to keep the remaining patients alive, as the international community must act now to prevent further loss of life.
