WHO adopts resolution calling for aid to Gaza

The World Health Organisation (WHO) has adopted a resolution calling for "immediate, sustained, and unimpeded passage of humanitarian relief" into Gaza.

It is the first resolution adopted by consensus within the UN system since the Israeli assault on Gaza began on 7 October.

 “It does not resolve the crisis. But it is a platform on which to build,” WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said.
