WHO chief says 34 children, 3 adults taken from Gaza to Egypt Saturday for medical treatment
2025-02-02
[IsraelTimes] Thirty-seven patients were transferred from Gaza to Egypt on Saturday via the Rafah border crossing after it reopened for the first time since May 2024, the director-general of the World Health Organization says.

The patients, 34 children and three adults, were transferred to Egypt for continued medical treatment, says Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus on X.

“We are grateful to the government of Egypt for their continued support and for providing specialised care to patients from Gaza,” he adds, calling for medical evacuations “to be expedited through all possible routes.”

“Thousands of lives depend on it,” he adds.
