世界卫生组织周五表示，大量原定运往加沙的医疗物资等待以色列当局批准通关的时间中位数为74天，并呼吁为急需的援助提供“畅通无阻且可预期”的准入。
Large volumes of medical supplies meant for Gaza wait a median of 74 days for clearance by Israeli authorities, the World Health Organization said Friday, urging “unimpeded and predictable” access for the much-needed aid.
“加沙没有一家医院是完全运作的，”世界卫生组织驻被占巴勒斯坦领土代表雷因希尔德·范德韦尔特在日内瓦对记者说。
“Not one hospital in Gaza is fully functional,” Reinhilde Van De Weerdt, WHO representative in the occupied Palestinian territory, told reporters in Geneva.
范德韦尔特表示，尽管停火宣布已过去一年，但药品和医疗物资的长期短缺仍然是恢复卫生服务的主要障碍。她说：“没有这些物资，没有任何医院能完全甚至部分运作。”
Van De Weerdt said chronic shortages of medicines and medical supplies remain a major obstacle to restoring health services, despite a year having passed since the ceasefire was announced.
根据世卫组织最新分析，大量医疗物资等待以色列批准通关的时间中位数为74天，约两个半月。
"Without those items, no hospital will ever be fully or even partially functional," she said.
她说：“如果货物未获批准，我们就必须重新开始那个漫长、繁琐的流程，且无法保证会有不同的结果。”
According to the WHO's latest analysis, large volumes of medical supplies wait a median of 74 days, roughly 2 1/2 months, for Israeli clearance.
她说，药品的批准率近87%，而医疗设备——包括X光机、消毒设备和CT扫描仪备件——经常被拒，“往往不给任何解释。”
“If the shipment hasn't been approved, then we start that lengthy, cumbersome process all over again with no guarantees for a different outcome,” she said.
她警告说：“在仓储或运输中多耽搁一天，药品就离过期近一天，设备就离在到达需要它的人手中前损坏近一步。”
Medicines have an approval rate of nearly 87%, while medical equipment – including X-ray machines, sterilization equipment, and spare parts for CT scanners – is regularly rejected, she said, "often with no explanation given." "Every extra day in storage or in transit brings medicines a day closer to expiry, an equipment closer to being damaged before it ever reaches the person who needs it," she warned.
她还将加沙的安全形势描述为“非常、非常不稳定”，表示从凯雷姆沙洛姆口岸提取医疗物资要求世卫组织团队乘坐装甲车、穿戴个人防护装备，穿越以色列军队控制的区域。
She also described the security situation in Gaza as “very, very precarious,” saying collecting medical supplies from the Kerem Shalom crossing requires WHO teams to travel through an area controlled by the Israeli military using armored vehicles and personal protective equipment.
她说，这一过程必须与以色列当局协调，团队经常面临获准通行的延误，并补充说，后勤人员可能一大早出发，直到深夜才带着在口岸等待的物资返回。
The process must be coordinated with Israeli authorities and teams often face delays in receiving the green light, she said, adding that logistical staff can leave early in the morning and return late in the evening with supplies that had been waiting at the crossing.
世卫组织呼吁确保人道主义物资与医疗用品能够畅通无阻且可预期地大量进入加沙地带，并应启用多个过境点。
The WHO called for the “unimpeded and predictable” entry of humanitarian and health supplies into Gaza at scale and the use of multiple crossings.
