Anera’s Healthcare and Medical Aid Efforts in Gaza Amid War

The healthcare system in Gaza has long faced numerous challenges due to political instability, economic hardships and ongoing conflict. Even before the recent war that began on October 7, 2023, the system was already under tremendous strain.

Now, with the current war, medical supplies are scarce and badly needed, and healthcare centers have been decimated by bombs and violence – all hampering the delivery of essential services
