The head of the World Health Organisation (WHO) has called for a ceasefire in Gaza and “the urgent protection of all health facilities and personnel”, Al Jazeera reports.
Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus made the comments after Israeli forces this week demolished the Noura al-Kaabi Kidney Dialysis Centre in northern Gaza.
According to Tedros, the centre had been providing care to about 40 patients each week.
“Last week, WHO moved 20 of the 23 dialysis machines out of the centre to keep them safe,” the director general said in a post on X.
