WHO affirms health situation in the northern Gaza Strip gets dire.

GAZA, Oct. 31 (YPA) – Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO), Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, confirmed on Thursday that the health situation in the northern Gaza Strip is getting dire.

He called on everyone to protect hospitals and abide by international law.

“The World Health Organization condemns this morning’s Israeli attack on Kamal Adwan Hospital, which injured some hospital staff, and hit a warehouse containing life-saving supplies provided by WHO through complex missions, as well as the desalination plant and water tanks above the hospital,” the WHO Director-General said in a post on the X.

Ghebreyesus noted that the hospital has barely been functioning since the latest raid, stressing that the latest attack puts patients’ lives at grave risk.
