Gaza begins coronavirus vaccination drive following arrival of the first vaccines to the blockaded coastal area

Palestinian Health Ministry official Yahya Aabed, receives a shot of the COVID-19 Russian-made Sputnik V vaccine, in Gaza City, Monday, Feb. 22, 2021.

More medical workers and patients with chronic diseases are to start receiving injections on Tuesday. The shortage of vaccines in both the Gaza Strip and the West Bank stands in stark contrast to Israel, which is on pace to immunise almost all of its adult population in the coming weeks. Israel says that under interim peace accords, the internationally recognised Palestinian Authority is responsible. Israel has vaccinated its own Arab population.
