WHO Gaza medical supplies

The World Health Organization and partners completed a mission to Al-Ahli Arab and Al-Sahaba hospitals in northern Gaza on 9th March.

Both hospitals are functioning with limited capacity, and lack food, fuel, specialized staff, anesthetic drugs, antibiotics and internal fixation devices. WHO delivered orthopedic and trauma items for patients and totally 15,000L of fuel to these two hospitals. WHO continues to call for a ceasefire and sustained, safe access to health facilities in order to supply hospitals with urgently needed lifesaving healthcare on a regular basis.
