The Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO), Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, has called for the continuation and intensification of the flow of medical aid to the Gaza Strip, which remains under a tight Israeli blockade.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday, Dr. Tedros stressed that “the survival and well-being of people in Gaza depend on the entry of aid into the territory.”
He stated that 24 trucks carrying essential medical supplies have been delivered to Gaza since the beginning of August, including life-saving medicines and other critical health materials.
These supplies, he noted, will be distributed to health centers and hospitals throughout the strip.
Earlier on Sunday, the Gaza Ministry of Health announced that the death toll from Israel’s starvation policy has risen to 175 Palestinians, including 93 children, since the war began on October 7, 2023.
