WHO completes Nasser hospital evacuation amid Israeli bombing

The World Health Organization (WHO) said it has completed a second evacuation mission from Gaza's Nasser hospital, transferring a total of 32 critical patients including children.

The hospital has faced a near total siege at the hands of the Israeli army and effectively stopped functioning following Israeli raids.

Efforts to transfer the remaining patients are ongoing, the global health agency said.

"WHO fears for the safety and well-being of the patients and health workers remaining in the hospital and warns that further disruption to lifesaving care for the sick and injured would lead to more deaths," the WHO said on social media site X.
