Oxygen stations operating beyond capacity in Gaza

15 August 2026 11:49 BST

Gaza's health ministry has announced that the enclave's oxygen stations are operating beyond maximum capacity because Israel is preventing essential supplies from entering.

The ministry said only 12 of 34 oxygen stations remain operational, while just four of 30 oxygen cylinders are still functioning.

"The availability of oxygen is not a medical luxury, but is the lifeline for many vital and life-saving departments," the ministry warned.
