There are no more functioning hospitals in the rebel-held eastern part of Syria's Aleppo, where more than 250,000 people are living under siege and many need urgent medical care, the UN has said, according to ABC News.
"There are currently no hospitals functioning in the besieged area of the city," the World Health Organization (WHO) said in a statement on Sunday, citing reports from its partners in the area.
"More than 250,000 men, women and children living in eastern Aleppo are now without access to hospital care," the United Nations agency added.
WHO noted that some health services in the devastated area "are still available through small clinics", but that trauma care, major surgeries and other responses to serious conditions have stopped.
