The World Health Organization chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus renewed his calls for "peace now" in Gaza, condemning Israel for blocking aid to the besieged enclave.
"The denial of basic needs – food, fuel, sanitation, shelter, security and healthcare – is inhumane and intolerable," said Ghebreyesus in a post on platform X, as the war entered its seventh month in Gaza.
