Today, WHO transferred three critically ill newborn babies from Al-Helou Hospital in #Gaza City to Al-Aqsa Hospital in Deir al-Balah to receive lifesaving care that could no longer be provided at Al-Helou, including for one infant on critical oxygen therapy.

A fourth baby, who had been scheduled for transfer, died this morning before the mission’s arrival.

Al-Aqsa itself is overwhelmed and facing severe shortages of medical supplies, as more people flee south from the north.

WHO reiterates its call for the protection of health care and for unhindered access to aid into and across Gaza.

We urge all parties to deliver peace, now!
