Gaza children dying as they wait for Israel to enable evacuations

Children in Gaza are dying while waiting for permission to evacuate for medical treatment, as families plead for help amid ongoing restrictions. The World Health Organization coordinated the first medical convoy out of Gaza since the ceasefire, transferring dozens of patients and their carers to hospitals abroad via Israel and Jordan. The United Nations is urging for a rapid increase in medical evacuations, but Israel has kept the Rafah border crossing with Egypt closed, citing conditions related to the ceasefire agreement. International leaders and health officials continue to call for access to treatment in the occupied West Bank and for more support to address the urgent medical needs in Gaza.
