Gaza petition, please sign – without fuel health system will collapse

in

Dr Medhat Abbas and Gush Shalom
 
Also after the
“disengagement” Gaza depends on Israel for its basic provisions. Now the
IDF closes the taps – collective punishment for a million and a half
people.
 
The following request by
Dr Medhat Abbas is about
the
shortage of diesel and the relation to health. For those who need treatment, it can mean the
difference between life and death. Please, sign the
petition.

Subject: URGENT PETITION to END THE HEALTH CRISIS IN
GAZA

Appeal – Appeal –
Appeal

We have a
very series shortage of diesel in the ministry of Health
the majority of the
11 hospitals of MOH do suffer from a shortage of fuel, the same is for the 52
primary health care clinics and vehicles.
I am not speaking now about the
consequences but they are catastrophic and include the transportation defect
which will not enable the employees of the Ministry to go to their hospitals.

Please. We urge you to help us by applying any sort of pressure that could
let the Israelis change their mind about this fatal action that would threaten
the lives of thousands of civilians in the already under siege Gaza.
Dr
Medhat Abbas
General Director of
Crisis Management Unit
Ministry of
Health, Gaza.

URGENT
PETITION to END THE HEALTH CRISIS IN GAZA


Since Israeli government
declared Gaza as “hostile entity” on 19th September 2007,Israel blocks
delivery of essential medicines to Gaza Strip and doesn’t allow Palestinian
patients to go outside of Gaza for urgent treatment.


The United Nations, The
World Health Organisation and Physicians forHuman Rights have condemned
Israel for this situation, but Israeli government is still continue to its
policy and Palestinian patients are slowly dying in front of the
world.

All the victims of this humanitarian crisis are innocent civilians,
and many of them are children. For example in 14th November 2007, 6 months old Palestinian baby Sina al-Hajj died because Israeli government didn’t
allow her to cross Gaza border for geting treatment. Palestinian MP Jamal Al
Khudari said now there are more than a thousand Palestinian patients in
urgent need of treatment who are not allowed to leave Gaza.
