The World Health Organization (WHO) warned that repeated delays in bringing life-saving medicines, prosthetics, and other supplies from Israel into Gaza risk having “devastating consequences” for Palestinians. Reinhilde Van De Weerdt, the WHO’s representative in Palestine, called on Israeli authorities to “release the pressure on medical supplies,” noting that one shipment of prosthetics had been rejected four times in the past six months. She emphasized the need for unimpeded and predictable entry of humanitarian and health supplies into Gaza, especially as winter begins, to prevent disease outbreaks and address the needs of nearly two million people requiring shelter.
