WHO chief says Gaza health system is being deliberately destroyed
Geneva (Quds News) – The head of the World Health Organization said yesterday that the health system in Gaza was being destroyed as he reiterated his call for an immediate ceasefire.
Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus also hailed Gaza’s medical workers who continue their work under increasingly dire circumstances amid the ongoing Israeli aggression on the enclave.
“The decimation of the Gaza health system is a tragedy,” he posted on X, formerly Twitter.
“In the face of constant insecurity and inflows of wounded patients, we see doctors, nurses, ambulance drivers and more continue striving to save lives,” Tedros said.
The UN health agency has long been sounding the alarm about the state of health care since the bloodiest ever Israeli aggression on Gaza erupted on October 7.
