The Director-General of the World Health Organization, Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, issued an urgent and explicit call to the world, warning that the health system in the Gaza Strip is on the verge of complete collapse, describing the humanitarian situation there as 'inhumane,' and demanding an immediate ceasefire to save what can be saved.
The statements came at a time when the Israeli military incursion in northern Gaza coincides with new evacuation orders, creating an escalating humanitarian disaster and putting hundreds of thousands of civilians at serious risk.
The Director-General confirmed that the military incursion and ongoing evacuation orders in northern Gaza are leading to new waves of displacement, exacerbating the suffering of an already exhausted population.
We call for an immediate end to these inhumane conditions, and we call for a ceasefire.
