Healthcare on the Brink in West Bank | Roanoke News

A new report reveals Israel’s withholding of billions in Palestinian tax revenue is pushing West Bank healthcare to the brink—hospitals cutting hours, clinics shuttering, and patients like Bassam Musleh, a 70-year-old man who went months without his heart meds, forced to rely on mobile clinics. With checkpoints and raids blocking access, people with cancer, kidney disease, and heart conditions are rationing medicine to buy food. Aid groups scramble under funding shortages and supply restrictions, while new barriers isolate entire towns—some women give birth in ambulances stuck at checkpoints, and lives are lost. The military denies targeting medical care, but the human toll is undeniable: patients break down in queues, mental health collapses, and a system designed to heal is failing those who need it most.
