This is Najjar Hospital in Rafah, where a 10-year-old boy, Nassim, is on kidney dialysis**. Nassim is from the northern Gaza Strip. Due to the need to find a hospital to carry out**, after the Israeli army began its ground offensive, Naseem followed his father to evacuate to southern Gaza, while his mother and other siblings remained at home.

Children receiving kidney dialysis** Nassim Mohra: I came here to accept **, I was afraid that I would die and never have the opportunity to see my family, relatives, brothers and sisters again.
Due to the lack of medical resources, Nassim has also been able to accept ** for a shorter period of time than four days a week to two days a week, and from four hours to two hours each time.
Nassim's neighbor Adel Haniyeh: Nassim's condition is not good, sometimes I wait until the evening, even late at night, before it is the doctor's turn to give him **.
Doctors at Najjar Hospital said that due to the influx of patients and a shortage of medical equipment, the nephrology department is overworked, with the number of patients admitted to nearly three times its capacity, and equipment failures are common.
Head of the Renal Dialysis Department at Najjar Hospital Ihab: Due to constant use, these devices also often break down, we have reduced the ** time per patient and also reduced the number of days because there are too many patients in the hospital.
Children receiving kidney dialysis** Nassim Mohra: I want the war to end so that I can go home and return to normal life. I can't play or run like any other kid right now.
