In a statement, ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra said medical teams are unable to treat all of the injured arriving at the hospitals while noting they are dealing with types of injuries they have not seen in previous wars. Al-Qudra also noted that the humanitarian and medical aid arriving in Gaza does not meet the needs of the hospitals. Bed occupancy rate at operational hospitals in southern Gaza stands at 350%, says health ministry spokesman.
