BRIEFING DE PRESSE DE L'ONU À GENÈVE
5 mars 2024
Situation à Gaza
Le Dr Richard Peeperkorn, représentant de l'Organisation mondiale de la santé (OMS) dans le territoire palestinien occupé, a déclaré depuis Jérusalem que plus de 30 500 personnes avaient été tuées à Gaza, tandis que près de 72 000 personnes avaient été blessées et que l'on estimait à 8 000 le nombre de personnes sous les décombres. Plus de deux millions de personnes étaient confrontées à une catastrophe humanitaire et à un désespoir total, ce qui entraînait des violations régulières de l'ordre public. Les gens vivaient dans des conditions insalubres et faisaient face à une insécurité alimentaire extrême. Le système de santé s'effondrait, avec seulement un tiers de tous les hôpitaux partiellement fonctionnels. Les dommages infrastructurels à travers la bande de Gaza étaient immenses, ce qui prendrait des décennies, plutôt que des années, à reconstruire. L'OMS et ses partenaires ont pu accéder au nord de Gaza, et le 1er mars, ils ont atteint l'hôpital Al-Shifa pour livrer 19 000 litres de carburant et des fournitures vitales pour 150 patients, ainsi que des traitements pour 50 enfants souffrant de malnutrition aiguë sévère. Une énorme destruction a été observée, ainsi que de la malnutrition. Le 3 mars, l'OMS et ses partenaires ont pu accéder aux hôpitaux Kamal Adwan et Al-Awda pour la première fois depuis le 7 octobre. La situation à l'hôpital Al-Awda était particulièrement effroyable, l'un des bâtiments ayant été détruit. Le Dr Peeperkorn a expliqué que l'hôpital Kamal Adwan était le seul hôpital de pédiatrie dans le nord de Gaza et était débordé de patients. L'OMS a réussi à livrer 9 500 litres de carburant à chaque hôpital, ainsi que des fournitures médicales essentielles - juste une fraction des besoins urgents en matière de sauvetage.
