 The World Health Organization (WHO) has issued a dire warning about the deteriorating public health situation in Gaza due to mass displacement.

Overcrowding, inadequate shelter, and poor water, sanitation, and hygiene conditions are significantly increasing the risk of infectious diseases.

In a statement, the WHO highlighted that the number of patients requiring medical evacuation from Gaza is expected to rise, given the diminishing capacity of the local healthcare system.

The organization is calling for the establishment of multiple medical evacuation corridors to ensure the safe passage of patients through all possible routes.
