‘Critcal’ to see UNSC resolution realised in Gaza: WHO

Sean Casey from the World Health Organization in Gaza says the situation at hospitals is “dire” as facilities are overwhelmed and so many have closed completely.

Despite a UN Security Council resolution last week calling for scaled-up humanitarian aid, Casey says hostilities in the past few days have not allowed that to happen.

“I was at al-Aqsa Hospital in the middle area where the night before they received a huge number of injuries, 100-plus injuries, and many deceased brought to the hospital from the night before,” Casey told Al Jazeera.

“We’re seeing significant numbers in the hospitals and it’s really important to reiterate the UN Security Council resolution called for humanitarian pathways … It’s really critical we see that realised because we’re seeing many civilians losing their lives, we’re seeing hospitals lose functionality, we’re seeing health workers displaced and unable to care for the many patients that are put before them.”
