GENEVA: World Health Organization chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said Friday he was 'very concerned' about the growing threat of infectious diseases in the Gaza Strip.

'As people continue to be massively displaced across the south of Gaza, with some families forced to move multiple times and many sheltering in overcrowded health facilities, my WHO colleagues and I remain very concerned about the increasing threat of infectious diseases,' Tedros said on X, formerly Twitter.
