Gaza hospitals treating new-born babies facing 'extremely challenging circumstances'
Unicef, the UN agency which provides aid to children worldwide, has said that paediatric hospitals in Gaza are facing severe shortages amid Israel's ongoing blockade of all aid and supplies.
"Hospitals in Gaza treating newborns and children don’t have enough medical equipment and are operating under extremely challenging circumstances," the agency wrote on X, accompanied by a video.
"Humanitarian aid must be allowed to enter Gaza again. A ceasefire must be reinstated. The survival of children depends on it," it added.
