WHO Says to Remain in Gaza City Despite Israel’s Call to Leave

WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus emphasized that half of Gaza Strip's functional hospitals are in Gaza City, critical for healthcare during intensified Israeli attacks.

  • On September 10, 2025, the UN health agency confirmed that its staff would continue operating in Gaza City despite Israel’s military urging residents to evacuate amid escalating attacks.
  • This decision follows Israel's military order demanding one million people in Gaza City move to a 'humanitarian zone' in southern Gaza, which WHO calls unfeasible due to lack of support services.
  • WHO states that Gaza City's half-functioning hospitals are critical and that the territory's crippled health system cannot lose any more medical facilities amid intensifying Israeli attacks.
  • WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus condemned the recent evacuation directive, emphasizing that the crisis in Gaza is man-made and calling on the global community to take responsibility and intervene.
  • WHO's refusal to abandon Gaza City amid escalating violence and famine warnings suggests continued humanitarian engagement but raises urgent calls for ceasefire and global intervention.
