‘Severe Hunger’ In Gaza, Situation ‘Hellish’- WHO

315

The World Health Organization (WHO) says it could not deliver food to Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis despite a “serious shortage” after delays at checkpoints.

I witnessed two people suffocating to death from the overcrowding,” says Mercy Corps aid worker after a rare food delivery reached Northern Gaza.

“We don’t know where they were injured or even their names,” Dr Omar Abu Taha says, as Palestinians bury dozens of bodies, released by Israel, in Rafah.

Israeli troops have stormed al-Amal Hospital in Khan Younis and are demanding doctors and displaced Palestinians evacuate, the Palestine Red Crescent says.

At least 26,751 people have been killed and 65,636 wounded in Israeli attacks on Gaza since October 7. The death toll in Israel from the October 7 Hamas attacks stands at 1,139.
