WHO chief breaks down describing hellish Gaza conditions

“I’m a true believer because of my own experience that war doesn’t bring solution, except more war, more hatred, more agony, more destruction. So let’s choose peace and resolve this issue politically,” Tedros told the WHO Executive Board in Geneva during a discussion about the Gaza health emergency.
“I think all of you have said the two-state solution and so on, and hope this war will end and move into a true solution,” he said, before breaking down, describing the current situation as “beyond words”.
Israel unleashed its campaign to eliminate Hamas after the group burst into Israel on 7 October in surprise attack.
However, since then, it has been revealed by Haaretz that helicopters and tanks of the Israeli army had, in fact, killed many of the 1,139 soldiers and civilians claimed by Israel to have been killed by the Palestinian Resistance.
Israel’s ambassador said Tedros’ comments represented a “complete leadership failure”.
“The statement by the Director-General was the embodiment of everything that is wrong with WHO since 7 October. No mention of the hostages, the rapes, the murder of Israelis, or the militarisation of hospitals and Hamas’ despicable use of human shields,” Meirav Eilon Shahar, said in comments sent to Reuters.
She also accused the global health agency of “collusion” with Hamas, saying the WHO turned a blind eye to Hamas’ military activities in Gaza hospitals.
In the same address, Tedros warned that more people in Gaza would die of starvation and disease.
“If you add all that, I think it’s not easy to understand how hellish the situation is,” he said.
