Tóm tắt :

Background:The current war in Gaza has resulted in extensive destruction, displacement and severe health challenges, affecting mental health and psychosocial wellbeing. High rates of post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety, and complex grief are prevalent, disrupting social networks, family cohesion, and community structures.Aim:To provide an overview of the mental health and psychosocial impact of the war in Gaza, identify research gaps and highlight key considerations for improving mental health and psychosocial support in conflict settings.Methods:This narrative review examined published studies and reports focusing on mental health and psychosocial support strategies and intervention effectiveness, as well as challenges in the delivery of mental health and psychosocial support in the Gaza Strip.Results:Findings revealed high rates of mental health disorders driven by violence, loss and displacement. Interventions such as community-based programmes, telemedicine and culturally adapted care show promise but there are gaps, including the need for longitudinal studies and gender-specific analyses.Conclusion:The war in Gaza has imposed a substantial mental health burden on individuals, disrupting community wellbeing. We advocate context-sensitive interventions, integrated into emergency response and recovery and emphasizing resilience, community support and culturally adapted care.
