Headline: UNCAPTIONED: WHO Condemns Israeli Attack on Gaza Facilities Amid Ground Offensive
Caption: WHO Condemns Israeli Attack on Gaza Facilities Amid Ground Offensive. The World Health Organization condemned the Israeli attack on its facilities in Gaza, including a residence housing staff and their families in Deir al-Balah. WHO staff and their families were forced to evacuate during active conflict, with reports of mistreatment and staff being detained by Israeli forces. The attacks caused significant damage, with WHO’s main warehouse destroyed by explosions and fire, and its supplies looted by desperate civilians. WHO warned that the attack compromised its operational presence, severely impacting Gaza’s already struggling health system. Reports of malnutrition-related deaths emerged as the humanitarian crisis deepens, with at least 19 people dying from malnutrition since Saturday. The Israeli military’s ground offensive in Deir al-Balah displaced tens of thousands and targeted Hamas infrastructure in the area. WHO demanded the immediate release of its detained staff and the protection of its remaining staff in Gaza. Israel has ordered evacuations from large parts of Gaza, with about 87.8% of the region now under evacuation orders or military control. The Israeli military campaign has resulted in over 59,000 deaths in Gaza, according to the Palestinian health ministry.
