WHO Accuses Israel Defense Forces of Mistreating Its Staff, Families
DEIR AL-BALAH, GAZA STRIP, JUL 21 – The Israeli military's attacks on WHO facilities in central Gaza have disrupted critical health services and led to the detention of staff members, worsening humanitarian conditions for over 2 million people.
- The World Health Organization said Israeli forces attacked its Gaza facilities, detained staff, and destroyed its main warehouse on Monday amid escalating conflict in Deir el-Balah.
- These attacks followed Israeli military evacuation orders due to imminent operations in Gaza's Deir el-Balah, where intense shelling displaced tens of thousands of people.
- The WHO described these events as part of systematic destruction of health services, severely limiting their support to hospitals while Gaza's health system faces collapse.
- WHO Director-General Tedros Ghebreyesus emphasized that a halt to the fighting is urgently needed and overdue, as reports indicate that 59,029 Palestinians, mostly civilians, have died in Gaza since 2023.
- The attacks and displacement worsened Gaza’s humanitarian crisis, provoking calls from Western countries and UN officials for an immediate ceasefire and unhindered aid delivery.
