WHO has requested Israel to revoke the order for the mass evacuation of Gaza, as doing so could have disastrous health implications.

According to information provided to WHO by the Palestinian Ministry of Health, patients who require life support or who are seriously injured cannot be evacuated while conflicts continue, putting the lives of the vulnerable in jeopardy. 

WHO is also working to immediately create a humanitarian corridor so that supplies can be safely transported to Gaza's medical institutions.

This could possibly be through Rafah, which is just 20 minutes from the WHO logistics hub, which is stocked with enough supplies for 300,00 patients with a variety of wounds and diseases.

After meeting with WHO Director-General Dr. Tedros on October 9, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi agreed to expedite the transportation of medical supplies and other humanitarian aid from WHO to Gaza through the Rafah crossing.
