World Health Organization (WHO) Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus stated on Friday that the United Nations Humanitarian Air Service (UNHAS) crew member, who was injured in an Israeli attack on Yemen’s airport on Thursday, was evacuated from Yemen.

The WHO chief shared in a post on X that the wounded UN worker is currently in Jordan where he will receive medical treatment.
