English Abstract

This study aims to elucidate the main question of the most prominent impact of the Israeli blockade on the health sector in the Gaza Strip and the position of the international humanitarian and human rights laws towards these violations.

The study revealed that the Israeli siege has resulted in deterioration of health conditions in the Gaza Strip, poor health facilities and violations of the basic human rights related to health.

All of this constitutes a grave violation of the provisions of the international humanitarian and human rights laws.

The study calls upon the international community to immediately intervene to offer urgent relief programs in order to improve the health sector and oblige the Israeli authorities to abide by the basic principles, laws and rules approved by the UN, the most significant of which is the right to the utmost attainable standard of health.

Moreover, it calls upon the PNA to adopt urgent health policies to save the health sector in the Gaza Strip and to spare no effort to overcome the catastrophic impact of the deteriorating health sector due to the Israeli blockade.
