1590 health workers martyred in Gaza, including 157 doctors: Mu'ta
The Palestinian Information Center 'Mu'ta' reported Saturday that Gaza's health system is under severe strain due to the Israeli aggression since October 7, 2023.
According to statistics covering Oct. 7, 2023 – Aug. 14, 2025, 1,590 health workers, including 157 doctors, have been killed. Only 15 of 38 hospitals, 40 of 110 operating rooms, and 67 of 157 primary care centers remain functional, with hospitals operating at 200% occupancy.
The report highlights a near-collapse of Gaza's health system under blockade conditions, with limited medical supplies, fuel, and inability to transfer critical patients outside the Strip.
More than 70% of facilities are out of service due to direct attacks or depleted resources, leaving tens of thousands of injured, mostly women, children, and patients with chronic or cancer-related conditions, without urgent care.

Gaza – Saba: The Ministry of Health in Gaza announced today, Sunday, that in the past 24 hours alone, 14 Palestinians were killed and 132 wounded while waiting for humanitarian aid. According to the ministry's statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), this brings the total number of Palestinians killed while attempting to access aid—the so-called 'breadline martyrs'—to 1,938, with more than 14,420 others injured. On famine-related deaths, the ministry reported seven additional fatalities in the past 24 hours, including two children, raising the total to 258 deaths, of whom 110 were children. The ministry stressed that Israeli forces continue to target Palestinians waiting for aid on a daily basis, ever since the launch of the U.S.-Israeli mechanism on May 27, managed under the so-called 'Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.' Meanwhile, Palestinians in Gaza are enduring an unprecedented wave of hunger following Israel's closure of all crossings in early March and the imposition of severe restrictions on the entry of food, relief supplies, fuel, and medicine.
