With the large-scale destruction across Gaza causing wide-spread damage to all hospitals and health facilities, there is an urgent need to restore basic health services to those that are semi-functioning to provide much life-saving medical care to the people of Gaza.
UOSSM Canada has been providing emergency health support in Gaza throughout the war and aims to support the decimated health sector.
