World Health Organisation (WHO) has cancelled a planned mission to Al-Awda Hospital and the central drug store in northern Gaza for the fourth time since December 26 as the health agency did not receive deconfliction and safety guarantees.
In a post on X, the organisation said that the mission planned to move urgently needed medical supplies to sustain the operations of five hospitals in the north, including Al-Awda.
“It has now been 12 days since we were last able to reach northern Gaza,” the post said.
“Heavy bombardment, movement restrictions, and interrupted communications are making it nearly impossible to deliver medical supplies regularly and safely across Gaza, particularly in the north,” it added.
“Without adequate health care, the suffering in Gaza is growing each hour,” WHO said.
