Destruction in Gaza MOHAMMED ABED/AFP – 28.10.2023 Amid attacks in the Gaza Strip this Saturday (28), the WHO (World Health Organization) calls for a humanitarian ceasefire in the region and states that hospitals and morgues in the region “are crowded” “There are more injured people every hour, but ambulances cannot reach them because of the communications blackout. The morgues are full. More than half of the deaths were women and children”, says the organization, in a statement.
