The health-care system has all but collapsed. One of the only reminders of a system is the referrals mechanism between the remaining primary health-care facilities, medical points, field hospitals, and partially functioning hospitals. The Red Cross Field Hospital remains operational in the western side of Rafah, southern Gaza. 

This report covers the period from May 9 to August 10, 2024.

Over the last month, the evacuation orders issued by the Israeli Defence Force (IDF) have significantly contributed to the growing displacement of people in Gaza, adding a layer of pressure to the remaining medical facilities. The field hospital coordinates with Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis to mutually prepare for emergencies.
