From WHO says it evacuated nearly 100 patients from Gaza for medical care in the UAE
The World Health Organization says it evacuated nearly 100 people, including dozens of children, from Gaza to the United Arab Emirates, calling for regular medical transfers out of the enclave to be allowed to resume.
“This was the largest evacuation yet from Gaza since October 2023,” Richard Peeperkorn, WHO Representative for the Palestinian territory, tells journalists, referring to an operation that took place yesterday.
“Gaza needs medical corridors. We need a better organized and sustained system,” he says, adding that over 10,000 Gazans were awaiting transfer.
