Shortages of insulin and medical equipment caused by the ongoing war in Gaza are creating fatal risks for diabetes patients. According to Al Jazeera, restricted access to essential supplies is causing critical health complications.
Patients unable to access insulin regularly are struggling to keep their blood sugar under control. Health workers say treatment options for those with chronic conditions have narrowed severely.
Aid organisations are calling for an increase in humanitarian supplies entering the area. Experts stress that disruptions to the cold chain and electricity infrastructure are also making it harder to store medicines.
