Only three hospitals operating in northern Gaza, with limited capability

A Palestinian Ministry of Health official said on Sunday that only three hospitals are operating in northern Gaza, following seven weeks of intense Israeli bombardment. 

The official added that the hospitals have very limited capabilities and are not able to cater to all patients due to the lack of tools, fuel and electricity. 

The Ministry of Health reiterated calls for more medicine and medical supplies to be brought into Gaza, as people and hospitals struggle to get hold of basic medicines such as pain killers.
