Humanitarian organizations in Gaza report a critical shortage of wheelchairs for disabled and amputee children, with families struggling to replace broken or outgrown equipment. Israel’s restrictions on aid deliveries have blocked the entry of new mobility devices, leaving children without essential support for movement and independence. The blockade has worsened an already dire situation, as existing wheelchairs often fail to meet the growing needs of young patients. Medical and disability advocacy groups warn that the delay risks long-term physical and developmental consequences for affected children.
