Story summary

Thousands of Palestinian patients have returned to Gaza after receiving medical treatment abroad, reuniting with their loved ones after nearly three years of separation. This comes as a result of Israel's systematic destruction of Gaza's healthcare system, which has forced thousands to seek treatment outside the enclave. However, thousands more remain blocked by Israel from leaving to seek urgent medical care. The situation highlights the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where access to medical care is severely limited due to Israeli restrictions.
