WHO chief calls for ‘sustained’ access to health aid in Gaza
ATHENS (AA) – The head of the World Health Organization (WHO) has called for “sustained” access for health aid in the Gaza Strip.
Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said on X that the WHO has called for the safe passage of additional aid convoys across the enclave, protection of all humanitarian workers and sustained access to health aid.
His remarks came after a humanitarian convoy of 20 trucks began to enter the Gaza Strip from the Egyptian side of the Rafah crossing, the first since the beginning of Israel’s onslaught.
The needs in Gaza are “far higher,” he added.
The war on Gaza, under Israeli bombardment and blockade since October 7, has led to a humanitarian crisis of unprecedented proportions.
At least 4,385 Palestinians, including 1,756 children, have been killed in Israeli attacks on Gaza.
