Rafiq is one of many children and young people in northern #Gaza who are starving and suffering from grievous injuries. History will judge us all for what these children are enduring. Ceasefire! Allow immediate, unfettered, scaled-up humanitarian access.

Rising desperation due to acute hunger witnessed during joint mission by @WHO, @UNOCHA, @UNICEF, @WCKitchen to hospitals in north #Gaza; partners demand immediate scale-up of food and water to ensure population health and stability. On 23 December, WHO and partners visited, and delivered supplies to, Al-Shifa Hospital, and visited three other hospitals in multiple convoys. We thank @UNDSS and @UNMAS for their support. Al-Shifa was once Gaza’s biggest hospital. But relentless hostilities and massive numbers of wounded people have brought its capacities to its knees. Now, it can only deliver the most basic of first aid. The supply of 19,200 litres of generator fuel delivered Saturday will help revive vital services. However, more will be needed. The hospital’s oxygen plant was destroyed during the hostilities. Al-Shifa is also providing refuge to 50,000 displaced people, according to hospital authorities. Indeed, colleagues saw itssurgery wing and other wards overflowing with Gazans seeking safety and shelter. People there are suffering from hunger, and the risk of famine is real, as it is across Gaza. Amid dire food shortages, the search for food is forcing people into horrible states of hunger and leading some -- out of desperation -- to take supplies from delivery trucks, as occurred during the joint mission. I can only imagine the torment that would drive people to such lengths. Sustained humanitarian access is essential for humanitarians to deliver food, water, fuel, medicines, and other supplies safely,and continuously, to over 2 million people. But such guaranteed, ongoing, safe access has not yet been put in place. Al-Shifa is a microcosm of the nightmare playing out across Gaza, where drastic shortages of medicines, food, power, water and – above all – safety imperil the population. The joint mission also visited the NGO-run Patient Friends Hospital, which provides maternity, trauma and emergency care. It performs 6-8 operations a day but lacks specialized vascular surgeons, neurosurgeons and intensive care staff, plusantibiotics, pain relief medicines and external fixators. Al-Helou Hospital, which specializes in maternity care, manages10-15 deliveries daily, including four C-sections. It urgently needs fuel, food and drinking water. The larger Al-Sahaba Maternity Hospital, which handles around 20 deliveries, including 12 C-sections, daily, is functioning with only three doctors, only one of whom can perform C-sections. It faces oxygen, antibiotics and anesthesia shortages. Hospitals should be places for care and recovery, not danger and unrelenting suffering. WHO will continue supporting the capacities of Al-Shifa and other health facilities across Gaza so they can provide life-saving care. What we urgently need is a #CeasefireNOW

The tobacco industry is preying on our children with flavoured tobacco and e-cigarettes, directly targeting them through social media influencers and ads near schools.    I urge all countries to make all schools tobacco- and nicotine-free to protect our children. Here’s @WHO guidance on how to make this a reality: bit.ly/3PR7yoR
