UNICEF: Children's and newborn hospitals in Gaza lack sufficient medical equipment.

The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) said on Saturday that hospitals for children and newborns in the Gaza Strip "lack adequate medical equipment and operate under extremely difficult conditions," in light of the ongoing Israeli genocide in the Gaza Strip for more than a year and a half.


In a post on its X account, UNICEF said, "The survival of Gaza's children depends on the reimposition of a ceasefire and the entry of aid into the Strip."


She stressed the need to allow humanitarian aid into Gaza again.


UNICEF explained that "Gaza hospitals, which treat newborns and children, lack sufficient medical equipment and operate under extremely difficult conditions."
