An official of the World Health Organization said today that there is expected to be the possibility of a massive increase in aid imports to Gaza to about 600 trucks a day under the terms of the ceasefire agreement.

“I think the possibility is there, and especially when more crossings open,” Rick Pepperhorn, the WHO spokesman for the occupied Palestinian territory, told a briefing of reporters in Geneva.

The WHO plans to transfer an unspecified number of prefabricated hospitals to support Gaza’s shattered health sector, he added.
