World Health Organization: The situation in Gaza is “out of control”

Director-General of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, confirmed that the situation in Gaza is “becoming out of control” due to the inability to deliver ready-to-deliver humanitarian aid.


Ghebreyesus said on the X platform (formerly Twitter): “With every second we delay bringing in medical assistance, we lose lives,” stressing that medical supplies have been stuck for four days at the border.


In its latest statistics, the Ministry of Health announced that the number of martyrs in the Gaza Strip had risen to more than 3,000 martyrs and 12,500 injuries, while the number of martyrs in the West Bank had reached 62 martyrs and more than 1,250 wounded since the start of the aggression on October 7. .
