Gaza has a ceasefire. But the situation is worse due to the stir. The number of infants who died in the last two weeks has increased to six due to the cold waves in the Gaza bar. The Israeli attack has caused a cold air in the area. Gaza Health Authority Director General Munir Al-Bursh said in a statement that the number of children who died due to severe cold has increased to six.
The wrath of the cold after the war in Gaza
From the beginning of winter, the total number of children who lost life due to cold has increased to 15. Al-Burche warned that the health crisis could worsen, as the loss of medical facilities is affecting health services in the region. The official said that hospitals, especially pediatricians, are facing difficulties in providing necessary treatment due to lack of resources and frequent power cuts. Earlier on Tuesday, Saeed Salah, director of the ‘Friends of the Patient’ Charitable Hospital in Gaza City, said that in the last few hours, at least three infants have died due to excessive cold and lack of heat in shelters. Gaza has been experiencing heavy winds, heavy rain and heavy cold in recent days.
Unable to take care of children
Due to bad weather, hundreds of tents have been eroded and many refugee camps are flooded, which has increased the problems of thousands of families. In the nearest east, the UN relief and work agency have earlier warned the rising risks to newborns in Gaza. The agency reported that due to the deteriorating situation and a severe shortage of safe shelters, 7,700 children were not getting the necessary medical care.
