The World Health Organization on Wednesday said it will send more than one million polio vaccines to war-torn Gaza after the virus was detected in wastewater there.

"WHO is sending more than 1 million polio vaccines which will be administered in the coming weeks," the UN agency's chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told a press conference.
