WHO. Ukraine emergency
WHO is working through our offices in Ukraine and neighboring countries, and with partners, to rapidly respond to the health emergency triggered by the war. We are delivering specialized medical supplies, coordinating the deployment of medical teams, and working with health authorities to minimize disruptions to the delivery of critical healthcare services within Ukraine and in countries hosting refugees.
WHO continues to deliver much-needed support on urgent health needs.
During the crisis, health must remain a priority pillar, with health workers being protected so they can continue to save lives and with health systems and facilities being protected so that they remain functional, safe and accessible to all who need essential medical services. It is imperative to ensure that life-saving medical supplies – including oxygen – reach those who need them.
Ensuring the health and well-being of all people lies at the core of WHO’s mandate and commitments in all situations, including humanitarian crises and conflicts. (WHO, Genf)
