The shortage of required medicines in the Gaza Strip poses a very serious threat to hospitals there, according to the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). In its monthly report on the humanitarian situation in Gaza, the OIC said that the shortage of medicine and medical supplies has rendered it impossible to perform eye and pediatric surgeries, cardiac catheterization and tumor removal surgeries. The report noted the depletion of all types of children’s therapeutic milk, urging Arab and Islamic humanitarian institutions to act and provide the Gaza Strip with needed medical supplies.
