Hospitals in Gaza on brink of collapse, says WHO
WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus on Thursday said the military incursion and evacuation orders by Israel in northern Gaza are driving new waves of displacement, forcing traumatised families into an ever-shrinking area unfit for human dignity.
The injured and people with disabilities cannot move to safety, which puts their lives in grave danger, Ghebreyesus wrote in a post on X.
Hospitals, already overwhelmed, are on the brink of collapse as escalating violence blocks access and prevents WHO from delivering lifesaving supplies, he added.
"We call for an immediate end to these inhumane conditions. We call for a ceasefire," he wrote.
