A human rights report revealed that the Israeli occupation's aggression on the Gaza Strip has put patients with chronic diseases at risk of death due to poor health services on the one hand, and the depletion of medicines on the other hand, in addition to food shortages and their inability to afford the cost of purchasing what food may be available, especially in light of widespread poverty and the repeated forced displacement of hundreds of thousands of them.

The report issued by the Al Mezan Center for Human Rights in Palestine said that patients with chronic diseases need to have appropriate medicines and treatments available on a permanent basis, and their delay in taking the medicine leads to the deterioration of their health conditions and exposes their lives to the risk of death.
