The head of the World Health Organization (WHO) made an impassioned plea for a ceasefire and a lasting resolution to the Israel-Palestinian conflict, describing the conditions in Gaza as “hellish.” WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, who had experienced war as a child, became emotional as he addressed the global health body’s governing body. He urged for a peaceful resolution, emphasizing that war only leads to more suffering and destruction. Tedros expressed his hope for a two-state solution and called for an end to the current situation, which he described as “beyond words.”
Tedros’ comments drew criticism from Israel’s ambassador, who accused him of ignoring the Israeli hostages, murders, and Hamas’ use of human shields. The ambassador also accused the WHO of colluding with Hamas and turning a blind eye to their military activities in Gaza hospitals.
In addition to his plea for peace, Tedros warned that more people in Gaza could die from starvation and disease. He highlighted the dire situation, emphasizing the urgent need for action.
