The audacious Israeli occupation claimed that the removal was necessary since its ground operations in southern Gaza would render the supplies useless.

According to the head of the World Health Organization Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, 'Israel' has warned the WHO to withdraw medical supplies from two warehouses in southern Gaza.

The audacious Israeli occupation claimed that the removal was necessary since its ground operations in southern Gaza would render the supplies useless.

Ghebreyesus wrote on X that the organization appealed to the Israeli occupation to withdraw its order and take "every possible measure to protect civilians and civilian infrastructure, including hospitals and humanitarian facilities."

Today, @WHO received notification from the Israel Defense Forces that we should remove our supplies from our medical warehouse in southern Gaza within 24 hours, as ground operations will put it beyond use.

We appeal to #Israel to withdraw the order, and take every possible…

In yet another bloody day for Gaza, the Israeli occupation committed new massacres against Palestinians across the Strip on Sunday, in addition to targeting multiple hospitals and medical and civil teams, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported.

The spokesperson for the Ministry of Health in Gaza, Ashraf al-Qudra, announced earlier that the death toll from the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip since October 7th has risen to 15,523 martyrs, with 41,316 citizens sustaining various injuries. He also pointed out that 70% of the martyred civilians are children and women.

Our correspondent reported that a new Israeli massacre was committed at the gates of the Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza. The Israeli occupation carried out strikes targeting the hospital's entrance, killing and wounding tens of civilians.

As of October 7, the Health Ministry in the Gaza Strip reported that approximately 16,000 individuals were killed by the Israeli occupation's relentless attacks, with an additional 42,000 people sustaining injuries. 

US State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller expressed on Monday that the United States is anticipating civilian deaths from 'Israel's' assault in southern Gaza, but believes the number will be lower than in the north.

While "Israel" claims to be conducting a more "surgical" approach in southern Gaza as advised by the US to allegedly avoid mass civilian casualties, UNICEF spokesperson James Elder revealed on Sunday that the current bombardment of Gaza is the worst since the war began.

US hands Israelis time of mere weeks to achieve 'war goals': WSJ

On Friday, a former deputy national security adviser in "Israel", Eran Etzion, stated that the Palestinian Resistance "has a chance of surviving the war" if the pressure keeps mounting on "Israel" to end its invasion in Gaza.

This follows a statement by US officials that the mounting international pressure could prompt "Israel" to end its invasion by early next year, especially if civilian casualties continue at high levels. 

“While the U.S. believes Israel has only weeks left, it’s going to be difficult for Israel to achieve its war goals within weeks,” Etzion said, adding: “It’s a weakness that Hamas has surely identified.”

"Israel" has continued to refuse the timeline it has been given by the US, US officials claimed to WSJ.

The US has sent multiple signals, noting that "Israel" would only have "weeks" in the Strip even though Hamas remains "far from being defeated," Etzion said.
