The Israeli military calls on the World Health Organization, WHO, to empty a storage facility that the organization has in southern Gaza.

According to the call, this must happen within 24 hours – then the Israeli ground invasion will render the medicines stored there “unusable”.

WHO director Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus confirms on X, previously Twitter, that the organization received the call from the Israeli military.

At the same time, he appeals to Israel “to withdraw the order”.
