Expedite Indonesian Navy Hospital Ship Docking for Gaza!
Expedite Indonesian Navy Hospital Ship Docking for Gaza!
Why this petition matters
The suffering of Palestinians in the Occupied Gaza Strip due to Israeli constant bombardment has been ongoing for 101 days. Since October 7, 2023, Israel has declared war on the enclave. Despite worldwide cries for a ceasefire, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu continues to disavow calls to halt military operations in Gaza.
Due to this ongoing bombardment and aggression by the occupying Zionists, and the direct targeting of hospitals, healthcare workers and ambulances, the health care system in Gaza, occupied Palestine, has completely collapsed. Every day in Gaza the medical needs of innocent civilians: mothers, children, infants, fathers and grandparents, are unavailable. There is no access to adequate and modern medical care. No access to even the most basic medical care, like morphine, antibiotics, sterilized surgical tools, electricity and fuel to provide basic services. It is all being intentionally deprived from the people of Gaza.
Medical Infrastructure No Longer In Use Due to Occupation Bombardment
- 31 Full Service Hospitals
- 121 Ambulances
- 53 Medical Clinics
- 337 Medical Staff Murdered
- 100 Medical Staff Abducted
Murdered/Amputated Due to Bombardment and Lack of Medical Care
- 247 Palestinians per day
- 117 murdered are Children, that’s 5 children every hour
- 180 Women per day give birth in Gaza. Complications of labor result in fatalities for mothers and infants every day.
- Doctored say “There are too many amputees to tally” a large % of 60,000 injured need amputations under the most horrific conditions.
- 10 Children a Day have one or more limb amputated
- There is no anesthesia or morphine and limited antibiotics.
- Many limbs could have been saved with proper medications
- Amputations are being performed as an only option to stop bleeding and save the victim’s life.
- 10 Children a Day have one or more limb amputated
These numbers increase every day- lives lost and changed forever.
We need an immediate method to treat the sick and injured to prevent more suffering and senseless death of Palestinians in Occupied Gaza.
