The World Health Organization (WHO) said 55 Palestinian patients and 72 caregivers have been evacuated from Gaza and sent to the United Arab Emirates for specialised medical treatment.

Patients included those suffering from autoimmune and blood diseases, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, eye and renal issues, trauma injuries, neurological disorders, and skin diseases.

The WHO also warned that more than 12,000 patients still require medical evacuation from Gaza.

Eight seriously ill Palestinians have been medically evacuated from Gaza with 25 companions.

The operation, which was coordinated by the European Union and WHO, saw five patients sent for treatment to Belgium, two to Spain and one to Romania.

However, at least 12,000 patients across Gaza require immediate medical evacuation if they are to survive.

Doctors have given the boy three doses of chemotherapy. But with supplies short in Gaza, they’re struggling to get more. If they can’t, they will have to remove Osaid’s eyes or the cancer will spread to other parts of his body.

“He’s just a child. How will he live his life without seeing? How will he play? How will he see his future and how will his life turn out?” Abu Libda asked.

“They cannot afford to wait. These children will die. They’re dying in waiting and I find it striking that the world is letting that happen,” Rosalia Bollen, a UNICEF official, told The Associated Press.

Osaid Shaheen, who is nearly two, now faces having his eyes removed after Israel rejected his evacuation for treatment of stage 4 cancer in his retinas on security grounds with no further explanation.

Ailing children wait in vain for Israeli permission to leave Gaza for treatment
1/
Thousands of patients in Gaza are waiting for Israeli permission for urgently needed medical evacuation from Gaza in order to receive treatment for war wounds or chronic diseases, after the destruction of much of the territory’s healthcare system by Israel’s 15-month war.

Among them are at least 2,500 children who UNICEF says must be transported immediately.

@zukunftmobil ja, weil das inhärent ne beschissene Idee ist...

  • Kein #Heli oder #VTOL ist unter €500/h fliegbar, und das ist nur Treibstoff & Wartung gem. Herstellervorgaben...

Abseits von #MEDEVAC und anderen Notfallseinsätzen und Sondernutzungen bezweifle ich dass es sinnvolle Nutzungen gibt.

#Flugtaxi ist einfach nur antisozialstes #Verkehrsmittel und.wird nur #Wanker wie #Bankster als Kunden gewinnen, die sich zu fein sind dieselbe #Tiefgarage wie alle anderen zu nutzen und die sich zu wichtig für den #Stau sehen...

The World Health Organisation (WHO) removed 97 sick and severely injured patients and 155 health professionals from Gaza in what its chief says is the largest medical evacuation since October 2023.

Patients included 45 children and 52 adults with a wide range of diseases including cancer, cardiovascular disease, congenital anomalies, blood and liver diseases and trauma/injuries.

21 Palestinian children evacuated to Abu Dhabi for medical treatment

In June, three US charities and the World Health Organization coordinated the exit of 21 Palestinian children with cancer, as they departed through the complicated Karem Abu Salem (Kerem Shalom) route into Egypt.

More than 25,000 patients in Gaza require treatment abroad – including 980 children with cancer – one-quarter of whom need urgent and immediate evacuation.
