Earlier we reported the World Health Organization executive board unanimously voted in favour of a resolution calling for "immediate and unimpeded" healthcare aid for Gaza.

It was only the seventh time in the UN body's 75-year history that such a vote took place.

"It is an important moment for WHO an organisation focusing on international public health. For me, it is a victory of the humanity. A victory of member states in promoting health, protecting the vulnerable, and saving lives," said Dr Ahmed al-Mandhari, regional WHO director.
