What’s left of Gaza’s hospitals is in catastrophic condition when it comes to medical care. Hospitals are struggling to treat Palestinians in the enclave who are struggling to survive the constant Israeli bombing.
Numerous Israeli attacks have targeted the hospitals directly, resulting in partial or complete destruction. Three humanitarian organizations dispatched a medical team to Gaza, and they reported “unimaginable” conditions in the hospitals.
To understand the scale of the damage to the hospitals in the Gaza Strip, Al Jazeera analyzed satellite images captured between October 22, 2023, and March 27, 2024.
Images exposed that 24 hospitals were damaged, including:
- 6 hospitals in northern Gaza
- 10 hospitals in Gaza City
- 1 hospital in Deir el-Balah
- 7 hospitals in Khan Younis
The analysis covers hospitals that have been destroyed or occupied by Israeli forces.
Perhaps the most well-known is Gaza City’s al-Shifa Hospital.
In March, the Israeli military stormed al-Shifa using tanks and heavy gunfire for 10 days, destroying most of the facility and killing dozens of people.

The hospital has been stormed four times by Israeli forces since October 7, with medical staff and journalists among those arrested, and mass graves found on the grounds.
