During a session of the World Health Organization's (WHO) Executive Board in Geneva, Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus made an emotional plea for a ceasefire in the Israel-Palestinian conflict, describing the conditions in Gaza as 'hellish'. He highlighted that 70% of the dead are children and women, and warned of the increasing risk of epidemics. In response, Israel's ambassador to the UN, Meirav Eilon Shahar, accused WHO of collusion with Hamas, alleging that the organization ignored evidence of 'terrorist use' of hospitals in Gaza. WHO has refuted these accusations, stating that such claims are harmful and could endanger their staff working in the region.
