The Rafah Crossing's reopening offers a critical lifeline for Gaza's most severely injured, yet with Israel permitting only 150 evacuations per day, the estimated 20,000 Palestinians requiring urgent medical care face a three-year wait for treatment. Dr Mohammed Tahir, head of medical evacuation and Chief of Surgery at Fajr Global, describes patients suffering from multi-drug resistant infections, neglected polytrauma injuries, and conditions requiring time-critical intervention that Gaza's decimated healthcare infrastructure cannot provide.
Between July and November 2024, over 1,000 patients died waiting for evacuation, and families now face an agonising choice between seeking treatment abroad with no guarantee of return or remaining in Gaza despite life-threatening medical needs.
Tahir added 150 patients allowed by Israel to evacuate daily through Rafah “does not even scratch the surface” of what is needed. “This is just a token,” he said.
