In a startling update from Geneva, WHO’s Eastern Mediterranean Regional Director Hanan Balkhy revealed that for over 11 weeks, none of the WHO trucks loaded with vital medical aid have been allowed into Gaza—even after Israel ended its blockade. 😱
'The situation is devastating,' Balkhy stated at the press conference. 'We are at stock zero for nearly 42 essential medicines and vaccines, and 64% of critical medical equipment is unavailable.'
This alarming report signals a deep humanitarian crisis, leaving health experts and local communities in urgent need of support. With essential supplies nearly depleted, the call for swift international engagement grows louder. 🚨
Stay tuned as we follow this developing story and hope for rapid measures to restore critical healthcare access to Gaza.
