Seven foreign doctors and aid workers who volunteered in Gaza described a perverse situation in which Israel permits doctors into Gaza but not medical equipment—even months into a supposed ceasefire—prompting several to smuggle medical supplies in, even as they treat new casualties of war.

Hospitals are supposed to be protected under international law, but the IDF has included them in its campaign of devastation. Many of Gaza’s hospitals are not functioning, and those that remain are operating with serious shortages of doctors and supplies. www.wired.com/story/gaza-w...

And while there has been a ceasefire in place for months, between the ceasefire declaration and mid-February, Israel killed more than 600 people. “The war is not over,” says one doctor. “The casualties are not the way they were before ... but they’re still happening.” www.wired.com/story/gaza-w...
