Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, director-general of the World Health Organization, said in a post on social media X about the occupation forces' massive attacks on the Gaza Strip: "I cannot find words to express our concern about the situation we are witnessing." According to Anadolu News Agency, the director general of the World Health Organization further stressed: “The news of heavy bombing and ongoing conflicts in the Gaza Strip is terrible.” Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said: "Our team visited Nasser Hospital in southern Gaza. This hospital is treating a thousand patients, which is 3 times the hospital's capacity. These conditions are unimaginably insufficient in terms of providing medical services." It should be noted that the Palestinian Independent Human Rights Commission announced on Saturday that 80% of the residents of the Gaza Strip have been forced to leave their homes due to difficult humanitarian conditions. The entity also reported that Israel's goal is to turn migration within the Gaza Strip into migration outside Palestine. Since Friday morning (December 1), the Israeli army has resumed its aggression against the Gaza Strip after the end of a ceasefire that lasted about a week and during which a prisoner exchange took place between the Tel Aviv regime and the Palestinian resistance. About 60 days after the attack of the Zionist regime on the defenseless people of the Gaza Strip, the number of martyrs reached 15 thousand 523 people, of which 6 thousand 600 were children and 4 thousand 300 were women. In addition, as a result of the attacks and crimes of the Zionist regime against Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip, 41 thousand 316 Palestinians were injured and 7 thousand 500 went missing.
