Description :
"The new medical material – for both north and south Gaza – includes war surgery kits, large packages of supplies used to treat people with wounds suffered in conflict.
The kits can be used to treat between 1,000 and 5,000 people, depending on the severity of their injuries.
The water purification supplies contain chlorine tablets that can treat 50,000 liters of drinking water to help alleviate problems Gazans now face in finding safe, clean water.
The ICRC urges all parties to the conflict and states with influence to enable rapid and unimpeded humanitarian access in line with international humanitarian law.
Sustained humanitarian access, and a sustained supply of humanitarian assistance, is desperately needed across Gaza."
