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. He noted the concern in Geneva as colleagues working in Gaza told the horror stories of what’s happening there. “Our colleagues are […]
