<p><strong>Articles 55 and 56 of the Fourth Geneva Convention</strong> clearly establish that Israel, as the occupying power, not only has a <strong>duty to ensure medical supplies</strong> reach hospitals in the OPT, but to <strong>ensure and maintain the services</strong> of the hospitals too. As High Contracting Parties to the Geneva Conventions, other states not only have a moral duty but also a legal obligation to ensure Israel abides by its commitments to the protected population of the OPT.</p>
<p><strong>UN Convention of the Rights of the Child,</strong> As a States Party to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, Israel is obliged under <strong>Article 24 of the treaty</strong> to recognise the right of every child under its effective jurisdiction “to the enjoyment of the<strong> highest attainable standard of health and to facilities for the treatment</strong> of illness and rehabilitation of health. States Parties shall strive to ensure that no child is deprived of his or her right of access to such health care services”.</p>

<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#ff0000;text-decoration:underline;"><strong>note occpal</strong></span></span> | June 3, 2012 | At this moment 204 types of medication and 218 types of medical consumables are depleted completely. 200 others are on their way to depletion. Including zero stock of Thalassamia and Cancer medications are not available.</p>
<p>The fuel crisis prevents normal operation of nurseries, ICU &amp; heart units and the emergency generators will encounter problems to face normal surgery schedules.  Due to blackouts of power, also sewerage, water pumps and all operating on power shuts down which poses extra health risks which is unacceptable.</p>
<p>The international community though, is not pressuring Israel though about it&#8217;s killing by proxy policies  which causes 1.7 million people in Gaza now to be effectively in a state of emergency and severe deprivation.</p>

<blockquote><p><em><span style="color:#000000;">How many more dead corpses of Palestinians and their children does the international community need to see in order to act? </span><br />
<span style="color:#000000;"> How many more cruelties and violations of Human Rights, Regulations and International Law will be needed?</span><br />
<span style="color:#000000;"> How long so the world intervenes in this ongoing warcrime and it will be stopped once and for all?</span><br />

<p><strong>For the sake of children and ill people in Palestine, share this post as wide as you can and keep sharing it. Health is no choice for many, right to medical care is a Human Right. Infringement of such is a passive form of aggression which policies Israel deliberately deploys with the intention to ethnic cleanse.</strong></p></blockquote>
