World Health Organisation chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus has said that only 10 out of 36 hospitals in Gaza are partially functioning, adding that the health system in Gaza is barely surviving.

“Al-Amal Hospital in Khan Younis ceased functioning as a result of sustained hostilities in and around the facility,” he said in a post on X.

“Demands an immediate end to attacks on hospitals in Gaza, and calls for protection of health staff, patients, and civilians,” he added.
