12:02 pm
grabbing all the can from a truck west of kansas city bags of flour, boxes of canned food throughout the territory, gods in space, mass, hunger, and disease. the un says $1.00 and $4.00 are starving. the majority of guys, this population has been displeased at least once, since the start of the war most depend on cross border aid for survival. those displaced say they are living in absolute desperation for them and we have lost hope. we'd be listening to the news for a $98.00 days hoping that the war will end, but there is no hope. all we see is difficult situation. we're in. we have no water electricity, but since water was scarce, we can only shar once a month. so it's taking a total in our mental health and there are diseases spreading everywhere. pressure
12:03 pm
to allow more 8 and to gaza is mounting on is real. the opening of a crossing at the israel egypt border has not significantly increase the rate of deliveries. a trucks are often delayed waiting for security checks, but israel's military says it is now increased its capacity for screening. we are ready and willing to facilitate as much humanitarian aid as the world will give, especially essentially like food medicine and shelter. we do security checks any minute, terry and a trucks for weapons before they enter, because we have increased our screening capacity considerably. but even when a gets through distribution is another problem in the absence of security guarantees and intensified offensive around hospitals in northern gaza. vital medical supplies can't get to people who need it. most it means that
12:04 pm
hospitals don't have to. it means that the patients don't have food. it means that i'm to tell, emphasize the care for the patients. you an agency say humanitarian corey doors for aid are needed now to save lives. christian linds meyer joins us now from the world health organization in geneva. so we just heard there is really armies saying that it's willing to facilitate more aid and that it has increased checking capabilities at the borders. is your staff noticing a difference on the ground? but thanks for having the hat. so the willingness is, of course great, but no, we have not seen any changes on the ground. the words have yet to um, translate into action on the ground. the problem for us is the, any permission and so any 8 coming in or you back, you use going out, is way to talk. it cannot be planned convoys sit for days,
12:05 pm
waiting to get in convoys. sit inside garza one thing to go to the north and of waiting for permission is also everything was planned as, according to the instructions, given the talk situation. that's the problem with dealing with. and of course, in a, in a short amount of time and a short window, there can never be enough to help lots of people, even if the roads are then clear, also tax, clear bombs and leo, the rates in order to bring material in or further up it took us what is most urgently needed at the moment. that's a tricky questions. nearly everything i mean, 1st of all, it right now is really full. didn't want it for the people, people, patients, including the patients on the operating tables and then right off the surgery, a begging for water into fuel. it needs fuel, of course to, to run the hospitals, to run the generate as a, to run ambulances. and then it needs a lot of medical equipment from simple bandages and boom dressings to anesthetics
12:06 pm
in order to have um, conditions to be done on the anesthesia and not without to anything in between. so what this is there, it's there that's do what it is ready. it's outside. all the un agencies are ready to do that, but the con was as your picture. so a miles long, partly waiting outside. it needs to get in that procedure needs to be speed it up. um and then of course the inside goes at the distribution is crucial. we also heard your colleague in the report saying that the w h o is planning missions inside garza every day, but they are not getting cleared. can you help us understand what exactly that means or so maybe let me, will you walk through the how does work? so you 6 times actually in the last the end since the end of december until yesterday, we had planned admissions to the north to supply the fuel partially run running hospitals with the central medicine and just central supplies like you will and
12:07 pm
bandages and everything. and that aid has been waiting in a common way. people get up in the morning to wait on the conway, they wait for the clearance and the clearance is not coming or the mission is being canceled from these riley for these. that means this a cannot reach the people that needs the people who are living around those costs will already on the constant, this rest of the compartment have loss of families and friends. they can not go to a safe place. they have and even if they reach there, they, they don't find medical health anymore. they, they have the sheltering in the places the, the medical equipment is not there. the staff, a partially evacuating as well. so it's a horrible scenario and every drop we can bring in and bring to those people is, is by early needed. right now. christian lives myers folks, person for the world health organization. thank you so much for for giving us a sense of what's happening there on the ground. we appreciate it.
