WHO delivers first medical aid shipment to Gaza since March

# The World Health Organisation says it has been able to deliver its first medical shipment into Gaza in almost four months. Nine trucks carrying essential medical supplies entered the enclave from Kerem Shalom in southern Israel on Wednesday. The aid arrival comes amid the near-total collapse of Gaza’s health system. WHO director general, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, says they are calling for the immediate, unimpeded and sustained delivery of health aid into Gaza through all possible routes.
