The only Planned Parenthood-affiliated clinic in the Gaza Strip was demolished by Israel Defense Forces warplanes following the deadly Hamas attack on Israeli civilians, prompting a round of Israel-bashing.
The Palestinian Family Planning and Protection Association, described as the International Planned Parenthood Federation’s “local member association in Palestine,” said its Gaza facility was taken out during a military airstrike, leaving “an already extremely vulnerable population with even fewer options.”
Hamas terrorists killed more than 1,300 people in Israel, including women and children, in a brutal surprise attack Saturday launched from the Gaza Strip, causing Israel to declare war against Hamas. Ammal Awadallah, the association’s executive director, urged humanitarian aid be allowed into Gaza, saying that the clinic is “unusable and our options to provide referrals to hospitals are decreasing by the hour.”
Under Hamas, abortion is banned in Gaza except in medical emergencies. Some Palestinian women wind up going to Israel to terminate their pregnancies, according to media “Over 37,000 pregnant women will be forced to give birth with no electricity or medical supplies in Gaza in the coming months, risking life-threatening complications without access to delivery and emergency obstetric care services,” the IPPF said.
