In a region marred by conflict and an escalating humanitarian crisis, the gruesome impact of Israel's war on Gaza is felt repeatedly by frontline healthcare workers.

The desperate state of medical care in the Gaza Strip was spelled out by the United Nations on Thursday, as its top court, the International Court of Justice, ordered Israel to do more to ensure the delivery of food, water, fuel and medical supplies.

The UN says two-thirds of Gaza's hospitals are out of action, with Israeli troops surrounding or attacking some of those even now - like the Al Shifa Hospital in the north and the Al-Amal in southern Gaza.
