The Executive Director of the World Health Organisation has said that the “minds and bodies” of children in Gaza were being “broken”, following two months of aid blockade and renewed strikes, Reuters reports.
“We are breaking the bodies and minds of the children of Gaza. We are starving the children of Gaza. We are complicit,” Deputy Director General Dr Michael Ryan told reporters at the WHO’s headquarters in Geneva on Thursday, urging the international community to act.
“As a physician, I am angry. It is an abomination,” he said.
