WHO cancels delivery of medical supplies to north Gaza due to unsafe conditions

The World Health Organization (WHO) cancelled a mission to bring medical supplies to northern Gaza due to security concerns. WHO had previously attempted this mission three times since December 26. The WHO office in the occupied Palestinian territories expressed concern about the difficulties in delivering medical supplies regularly and safely to northern Gaza due to heavy bombardment, movement restrictions, and interrupted communications. WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus highlighted the urgent health needs and devastation in northern Gaza.
