WHO warns of ‘devastating consequences’ due to delayed aid entry into Gaza
- The WHO’s representative in Palestine calls on Israeli authorities to “release the pressure on medical supplies”.
- Repeated delays in bringing life-saving medicines, prosthetics and other supplies from Israel into Gaza risk having “devastating consequences” for Palestinians who urgently need them, the World Health Organization (WHO) has said.
- Approved aid can enter Gaza only through Kerem Shalom, at the southern tip of the territory, while Rafah, also in the south, is open only for limited movement of people, including patients needing medical treatment abroad, the WHO said on Friday.
