Gaza breast cancer patients face dire care gaps

In Gaza, women with breast cancer face severe barriers to diagnosis and treatment due to Israel's war and siege, with hospitals lacking functioning mammography machines and essential medicines. Doctors report a 40% increase in advanced-stage cases, and over 4,000 women await travel for treatment, with five deaths per 100 due to delays.
