Geneva, Switzerland – The Gaza Strip has become a graveyard for thousands of children, the United Nations said Tuesday, fearing more may die of dehydration.
The UN children’s agency UNICEF said there was a risk that the number of child deaths directly from bombardment could be eclipsed. Without greater humanitarian access into Gaza, “the deaths from the attacks, they could absolutely be the tip of the iceberg”. UNICEF is calling for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire, with all access crossings into Gaza opened for the safe, sustained and unimpeded access of humanitarian aid, including water, food, medical supplies, and fuel.
UN humanitarian agency spokesman Jens Laerke added: “It’s almost unbearable to think about children buried under rubble, but very little opportunity or possibility for getting them out.”“We have 130 premature infants that are dependent on incubators, of which 61 percent approximately are in the north,” said WHO spokesman Christian Lindmeier.
