Geneva: The World Health Organization (WHO) on Friday said that more than 10,000 Palestinians are in need of medical evacuation from the Gaza Strip to receive treatment.
WHO spokesperson Tariq Jasarevic said that more than 10,000 people need to be evacuated and receive medical care outside Gaza, adding that 6,000 of them suffer from shocks, and more than 2,000 suffer from chronic diseases.
He explained that since the closure of the Rafah crossing in the southern Gaza Strip, no medical evacuation operation had taken place until yesterday, when 21 children with cancer were evacuated.
He stressed the need to reopen the Rafah crossing and any other border crossing to remove patients so that their lives remain safe.
Israeli occupation forces had occupied the Palestinian side of the Rafah crossing, before burning and destroying it, following their ground invasion of the Rafah Governorate, south of the Gaza Strip, on May 7.
