The United Nations has issued a strong condemnation of Israeli military operations in Gaza, particularly in the northern part of the territory. The UN Human Rights office expressed being ‘appalled’ by the week-long heavy Israeli strikes that have led to extensive damage and loss of life.
The ongoing violence in Gaza has put the World Health Organization’s (WHO) vaccination programme in jeopardy. The airstrikes and fighting have disrupted efforts to deliver much-needed vaccines to the population, threatening the health and well-being of residents in the region.
The United Nations is calling for an immediate cessation of hostilities and a return to peaceful negotiations to resolve the conflict in Gaza. The international community is urged to take action to protect civilians and ensure access to essential healthcare services, including vaccinations.
As the situation in Gaza continues to deteriorate, humanitarian organizations are working tirelessly to provide aid and assistance to those affected by the violence. The WHO vaccination programme is vital in preventing the spread of disease and maintaining public health in the region.
It is crucial for all parties involved to prioritize the well-being of civilians in Gaza and work towards a peaceful resolution to the conflict. The international community must step up efforts to support humanitarian organizations on the ground and ensure the delivery of essential services to those in need.
