Al Jazeera’s senior political analyst Marwan Bishara highlights the systematic destruction of Gaza’s healthcare system over the past 19 months. He recalls the initial strike on Al-Ahli Hospital in October 2023 and emphasizes how continued Israeli attacks and aid restrictions have left hospitals inoperable, forcing doctors to perform procedures without anesthesia. Bishara contrasts the emotional appeals of Palestinian UN envoy Riyad Mansour with the increasingly aggressive rhetoric of the Israeli ambassador. He suggests that such conduct at the UN warrants reprimand and reflects a deeper weakness and defensiveness within the Israeli government.
