The World Health Organisation (WHO) has said the situation in the Gaza Strip is getting worse all the time and approaching humanity’s “darkest hour”, AFP reports.
Richard Peeperkorn, the WHO’s representative in the occupied Palestinian territories, told reporters in Geneva, via video link from Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip, that the number of people on the move from central and southern Gaza was “vastly increasing”.
“A lot of people are desperate and almost in a permanent state of shock.
“We are close by humanity’s darkest hour,” Peeperkorn said.
“These bombings and the senseless loss of life must stop now, and we need a sustained ceasefire.”
