WHO Secretary General: One bottle of water remains for every 15 people
World
The Israeli military on 1 April withdrew from its second devastating raid on Gaza’s largest hospital, Shifa, leaving it in ruins, with the walls blown out and frame blackened. This is reported by Associated Press.
World Health Organisation Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said on Sunday that 21 patients had died at the hospital since the siege began. He said 107 patients remained in the hospital, including young children and adults in critical condition.
“Since yesterday only one bottle of water remains for every 15 people. Contagious diseases are spreading due to extremely unsanitary conditions, and a lack of water,” he wrote on X.
Accounts from the Gaza Health Ministry and Al Jazeera, a Qatari-based media network, said medical workers and journalists were among those detained and brutalized by Israeli forces.
A group of reporters was handcuffed, blindfolded and stripped of their clothes for 12 hours, a statement from Al Jazeera said.
Since Hamas militants stormed southern Israel on Oct. 7, Israel has made Shifa a central component of its blistering counteroffensive on Gaza.
