World Health Organisation (WHO) Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus has said the Palestinian enclave’s health system is under “unbearable strain”.
“The hospital is taking in far more patients than its bed capacity and staff can handle. Many will not survive the wait,” Ghebreyesus said in a post on X.
“With most of the health system decimated and brought to its knees”, the WHO chief said the latest attacks on central Gaza, which killed some 70 people overnight, underscored why an immediate ceasefire was needed in the Palestinian territory.
