The head of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, said late Sunday that a WHO-Red Cross operation had managed to resupply two hospitals in northern Gaza.
WHO and partners finally managed to reach Kamal Adwan and Al-Sahaba hospitals yesterday after 9 attempts this past week.”
In his statement, Tedros said the team delivered
20,000 litres of fuel to keep Kamal Adwan and Al- Awda functional.
23,000 litres of fuel to Al-Sahaba Hospital.
800 blood units, along with essential medicines and medical supplies to Al-Sahaba Hospital.
One-off missions are not enough. There is a sustained need for resupplying hospitals to keep them functioning. We reiterate our call for sustained facilitation of humanitarian missions and ensuring safety for humanitarian staff; and for a ceasefire.
