>> WHO condemns in the strongest terms the attacks on a building housing WHO staff in Deir al Balah in Gaza, the mistreatment of those sheltering there, and the destruction of its main warehouse.

>> … the WHO staff residence was attacked three times today. Staff and their families, including children, were exposed to grave danger … Israeli military entered the premises, forcing women and children to evacuate on foot toward Al-Mawasi amid active conflict. Male staff and family members were handcuffed, stripped, interrogated on the spot, and screened at gunpoint…

>> #WHO demands continuous protection of its staff and the immediate release of the remaining detained staff member.
