People in Gaza are dying not only from bombs and bullets, but from lack of food & clean water, and hospitals without power & medicine. This must stop. I will not relent in my call for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire and the immediate & unconditional release of all hostages.

Attacks on health care in #Gaza are unacceptable. Besides an attack on ambulances near Al Shifa hospital with at least 13 people killed and 60 injured, two further attacks were reported yesterday at Al-Quds Hospital and near the Indonesian Hospital. The key medicine all these patients and health workers need is for this horrifying and heartbreaking situation to end. We plead for a ceasefire and for working towards lasting peace.
.@WHO condemns the attacks on 3 November near Al-Shifa Hospital, Al-Quds Hospital, and the Indonesian Hospital in Gaza City and North Gaza governorates. emro.who.int/media/news/atta…

The humanitarian system in Gaza is facing a total collapse with unimaginable consequences for more than 2 million civilians. Needs are growing ever more critical & colossal. Food, water, medicine & fuel must be allowed to reach all civilians swiftly, safely & at scale.

I repeat my call for a humanitarian ceasefire in the Middle East, the unconditional release of all hostages, and the delivery of life-saving supplies at the scale needed. Everyone must assume their responsibilities. This is a moment of truth. History will judge us all.

I am very concerned about the apparent mistreatment of @laktarr001, Director of CDCAfrica, by immigration at @AirportFRA. Investigation needed. We cannot and should not host conferences such as the @WorldHealthSmt if we are unable to treat our guests with dignity and respect.
I’ve been mistreated at @Airport_FRA by immigration personnel who imagine I want to stay back illegally. My attendance of the @WorldHealthSmt is now in doubt. I’m happier & safer back home in Africa. They invite you then mistreat you.
