The Palestinian Health Ministry is warning of a medical crisis in the
besieged Gaza Strip as the enclave is running out of ALL types of
medicines.

The ministry says nearly 600 types of basic medicines
and medical equipment have already run out. It warned that more than 150
other types of medical supplies are expected to finish in the coming
few weeks. Meanwhile, officials say the existing fuel crisis in Gaza has
added salt to the wound of Gazans. They say fuel shortages have
affected hospitals and medical services. The coastal region has been
under the Israeli blockade since 2007. Dozens of patients have lost
their lives due to the shortage of medicines.
