The organization has expressed deep concern over the severe shortage of medication amid the rampant spread of epidemics, posing an imminent threat to the lives of those who have endured the recent onslaught.

Strongly condemning Israel's prohibition on medical supplies to hospitals and pharmacies in Gaza, particularly in Gaza City and its northern regions, the Euro-Med Monitor characterizes this act as a potential death sentence for thousands of injured and ill individuals. It labels such measures as another weapon in what it terms Israel's "genocide crime," aimed at causing both physical and psychological harm that ultimately results in the victims' demise.

Testimonies collected by the Euro-Med team from medical professionals and pharmacy owners reveal a worsening situation for patients in Gaza over three months after Israel's offensive against Palestinian civilians. The severe scarcity of essential medications, painkillers, and other vital supplies for primary, emergency, and central care is reportedly reaching unprecedented levels. Even child vaccines and infant formula are experiencing shortages.

The Euro-Med report emphasizes the negative impact of this dire health situation on both hospitals and patients, urging decisive action from the international community. The organization calls on parties, especially those endorsing the Geneva Conventions and the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, to intervene promptly. Their role includes halting Israel's actions against Gaza, protecting civilians and medical facilities, ensuring they are not targeted, and holding those responsible for these crimes and violations accountable.
