Al-Shifa Hospital, the largest medical complex in Gaza, has resumed providing essential health services through newly opened buildings, despite extensive destruction from Israeli attacks.
Nearly destroyed during assaults in November 2023 and March 2024, the hospital served for decades as the region’s primary medical hub, housing surgical units, a dialysis centre and a major emergency department. Many of its original sections remain in ruins.
Recent expansions within the hospital compound have restored critical services, including emergency care, outpatient clinics and inpatient treatment areas. The newly completed departments are intended to help manage the heavy influx of patients and maintain access to lifesaving care amid ongoing challenges.
