The situation at Al-Aqsa Hospital in Gaza has reached a critical point as the facility faces severe power shortages, threatening the lives of patients in intensive care units. According to Al Jazeera, the hospital may soon need to ration electricity to prioritize certain wards, as both of its main generators have failed, leaving only two small backup units that are described as 'unreliable' and 'incapable of supporting essential equipment for long periods.' Newshub reports that without urgent delivery of fuel and spare parts, the hospital will have to impose strict electricity rationing, which could severely impact patients dependent on ventilators, incubators, dialysis machines, and surgical theatres. The broader health system in Gaza is also under immense strain due to sustained attacks and restricted aid flows, with hospitals heavily reliant on generators to run critical care equipment.
