Gaza ceasefire slows but does not halt societal destruction; injured face dire conditions

The ceasefire in Gaza has reduced the pace of bombings but not the humanitarian crisis, with many Palestinians suffering life-changing injuries and struggling to survive in a ravaged landscape. WHO estimates that a quarter of the injured have spinal cord or brain injuries. The situation remains dire, with infrastructure destroyed and access to care limited, indicating that the ceasefire has not addressed the underlying societal destruction.
