Health care facilities in Gaza are struggling to cope as attacks on healthcare targets increase in scale and intensity, and supplies dwindle amid overwhelming demand.
“My call again and again is to respect the international law when it comes to protecting the safety of healthcare facilities and the people inside these ambulances,” said Dr. Ahmed Al Mandhari, WHO Regional Director for the Eastern Mediterranean, in an interview with UN News.
Mr. Al Mandhari emphasised to Abdelmonem Makki the heightened need for humanitarian assistance to Gaza and discussed ongoing WHO efforts to prevent a wider humanitarian disaster.
