WHO: Limited humanitarian pauses agreed for polio vaccine rollout in Gaza

The World Health Organization says Israel has agreed to a three-day humanitarian pause in parts of Gaza to allow for polio vaccinations. The organisation says the agreement is only for eight hours a day, between 6 am and 3 pm local time, and is limited to a small number of areas. Israel has continued its relentless assault on Gaza, killing at least 54 Palestinians on Thursday. Usman Aliyu Uba reports.
