WHO and partners recently completed a high-risk mission to supply fuel to the AL-Shifa Hospital in northern Gaza.

Gaza hospitals are in dire circumstances with a lack of access to patients and supplies.

The mission was carried out by WHO, alongside the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, the United Nations Department of Safety and Security, and Médecins Sans Frontières.

The Mission delivered 19000 liters of fuel to the hospital

The mission faced delays due to damaged roads and roadblocks.

The mission observed a decrease in the number of displaced people, from 40,000 to 10,000.

Essential services, including 3 operating theatres, basic laboratory and radiological functions, and a dialysis unit, remain functional

However, there is a lack of maternity and pediatric services.

Also, the main oxygen plant has been destroyed.

WHO has again called for an immediate ceasefire to protect civilians and healthcare.
