The World Health Organization on Wednesday called for Hamas to provide proof of life of the hostages it is holding and release them all on health grounds.
Israel has been bombarding since October 7 when Hamas gunmen poured across the border killing 1,400 people, mostly civilians, and kidnapping 222 others, officials say, in the worst attack in Israel’s history. The WHO said it was “gravely concerned” for the health of the hostages, which, it said, include health workers and up to 30 children.
He held talks on Wednesday with the Hostages and Missing Families Forum, an Israeli non-governmental organisation which represents families of those abducted.“Many of the hostages, including children, women and the elderly, have pre-existing health conditions requiring urgent and sustained care and treatment. The mental health trauma that the abducted, and the families, are facing is acute and psychosocial support is of great importance,” he said.
