The WHO is urging the establishment of a humanitarian corridor to allow health workers into Gaza and the evacuation of the sick and injured. The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has also expressed concern about the deteriorating situation, emphasizing the impact on hospitals and the urgent need for aid.
