On Wednesday, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO), warned that the decision by several countries to pause funding for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) will have “catastrophic consequences” for the people of Gaza.
"No other entity has the capacity to deliver the scale and breadth of assistance that 2.2 million people in Gaza urgently need,” he said, adding “WHO has faced great difficulty even to reach hospitals in southern Gaza."
WHO did manage, however, to deliver supplies to the Nasser hospital on Monday, but the mission to deliver fuel and food was denied.
