PHRI Report (2025)<\/p><\/div>\n

This report documents the Israeli assault for what it is: a deliberate, cumulative, and ongoing dismantling of Gaza\u2019s healthcare system – and of the population\u2019s ability to survive. Its meaning: genocide.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

28 Jul 2025\u00a0<\/em>–\u00a0On October 13, 2023, the Israeli military ordered the evacuation of 22 hospitals in Gaza City and the northern Gaza Strip. That day marked the start of an unprecedented assault on Gaza\u2019s health system. Over the past 22 months, Israel has systematically targeted medical infrastructure across the Gaza Strip, attacking 33 of 36 of Gaza\u2019s hospitals and clinics depriving them of fuel and water. More than 1800 of Gaza\u2019s medical staff have been killed or detained.<\/p>\n

Today, PHRI is releasing a position paper that documents this assault for what it is: a deliberate, cumulative dismantling of Gaza\u2019s health system, and with it, its people\u2019s ability to survive. This amounts to genocide. Israel\u2019s bombing of hospitals, destruction of medical equipment, and depletion of medications have made medical care \u2013 both immediate and long-term \u2013 virtually impossible. The system has collapsed under the weight of relentless attacks and blockade.<\/p>\n

Each day, dozens die of malnutrition. Ninety-two percent of infants aged six months to two years don\u2019t get enough to eat. At least 85 children have already starved to death. Israel has displaced 9 in 10 Gazans, destroyed or damaged 92% of homes, and left over half a million children without schools or stability. It has wiped out essential health services \u2013 including dialysis, maternal care, cancer treatment, and diabetes management.<\/p>\n

This is not a temporary crisis. It is a strategy to eliminate the conditions needed for life. Even if Israel stops the offensive today, the destruction it has inflicted guarantees that preventable deaths \u2013 from starvation, infection, and chronic illness \u2013 will continue for years. This is not collateral damage. This is not a side effect of war. It is the systematic creation of unlivable conditions. It is the denial of survivability. It is a genocide.<\/span><\/p>\n

Governments and international bodies must act now:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 Compel Israel to cease its fire.
\n\u2022 Protect and restore Gaza\u2019s health systems.
\n\u2022 Re-instate UN, international, and Palestinian mechanisms of support.
\n\u2022 Allow the free movement of aid.
\n\u2022 Ensure the safety of healthcare workers.<\/p>\n

These actions are critical \u2013 and must be taken immediately \u2013 to prevent further loss of life. The health system\u2019s minimal capacity today depends entirely on the efforts of Gaza\u2019s medical professionals, to whom this report is dedicated.<\/p>\n
