WHO’s director general says there has been little improvement in the amount of aid going into Gaza since the ceasefire took hold
The World Health Organization (WHO) has said that there has been little improvement in the amount of aid going into Gaza since the ceasefire took hold – and no observable reduction in hunger.
Speaking on Thursday, WHO’s director general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told reporters that the aid situation in Gaza “remains catastrophic” and “there is not enough food” for those in the territory. He said:
The situation still remains catastrophic because what’s entering is not enough … there is no dent in hunger because there is not enough food.
On Wednesday, the UN’s top court said that Israel must allow aid into Gaza, and found that its restrictions on doing so over the past two years had put it in breach of its obligations.
