The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) reports that its humanitarian teams led by the WHO have arrived at Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza to evacuate critical patients, Al Jazeera reports.

“But our request to bring food, fuel, blood and medicines was denied by Israeli authorities,” it said in a post on X.

Richard Peeperkorn, a WHO representative, said it is “incomprehensible” that after more than a year, regular humanitarian missions are being denied.
