Description
Critical health supplies were destroyed when a WHO warehouse in Ukraine was hit in an attack. These supplies were intended for health facilities treating patients every day. From the burnt warehouse, Dr. Chikwe Ihekweazu, Executive Director, WHO Health Emergencies Programme, explains what the loss means for health care in Ukraine and how WHO is adapting to keep essential medicines and medical supplies moving to where they are needed most. Attacks on health care must stop. Health workers, patients and medical facilities and supplies must be protected under international humanitarian law.
