WHO Calls for Release of Gaza Hospital Director Amid Ongoing Conflict

The World Health Organization has demanded the release of Hossam Abu Safiyeh, the director of Gaza’s Kamal Adwan Hospital, detained by Israeli forces during a significant raid that left the hospital non-operational. WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus highlighted the crisis in Gaza’s healthcare system, urging protection for hospitals amid escalating violence. Since October 6, Israeli military operations have intensified in northern Gaza, targeting Hamas-linked militants. Health facilities, including Kamal Adwan and the Indonesian Hospital, face critical damage and patient evacuations, severely impacting medical care for civilians.
