Lifeline Denied: The Urgent Need for a Medical Corridor from Gaza

This webinar highlights the devastating impact of Israel’s ongoing genocidal campaign on Gaza’s healthcare system and the arbitrary restrictions on the entry of medical aid. We will present medical, legal and firsthand perspectives, including PHRI’s petition to the Israeli High Court challenging Israel’s policy of blocking the medical corridor. Together, these perspectives underscore the urgent need to re-establish a sustainable medical evacuation corridor within the occupied territory.
