The World Health Organization (WHO) has managed to restore communication with health professionals at the Al-Shifa hospital in northern Gaza, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said on Sunday, November 12, 2023
“Regrettably, the hospital is not functioning as a hospital anymore,” he added in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter.
WHO lost communication on Saturday and the Health Ministry in Hamas-controlled Gaza said that operations at Al Shifa hospital complex, the largest in the Palestinian enclave, were suspended after it ran out of fuel.
