The only thing that is still propping up Gaza's hospitals is the sense of moral duty of the surviving medical workers.
Israel continues to target Gaza's heroic medics, while tens of thousands of patients remain trapped without treatment.
Dozen Palestinians allowed to re-enter but critical patients continue to be prevented from receiving life-saving care.
Like thousands of other Palestinians, I am slowly dying, trapped between a health system in ruins and a closed border.
The hospital director, arrested and tortured by Israel, has just seen his brother and other family members killed.
The hospital may be forced in the coming hours to ration electricity so that certain wards can be prioritised.
