“We have distributed an enormous amount of essential medical supplies, but it’s not enough. I mean, this is such an overwhelming disaster, it’s not enough,” said Dr Rik Peeperkorn, UN World Health Organization (WHO) Representative in Palestine.
Speaking in Geneva on the sidelines of the World Health Assembly, the senior WHO official echoed widespread international condemnation of the Israeli airstrike at a camp for displaced people at Tal as-Sultan northwest of Rafah, that left scores dead on Sunday.
“WHO actually deplores this attack, this attack on displaced people. And it demonstrates that there is no safe place in Gaza at all,” he told UN News, as video from the field hospital treating victims distributed by the UN aid office, OCHA, showed an injured father weeping as he described the moment his children died.
