Unicef, the United Nation’s agency for children, has described the dire situation in Gaza amid the ongoing Israeli blockade on all aid in a post on X.
The post said that one million children in Gaza are struggling to survive without basic necessities.
“Hundreds of thousands lack clean water and sanitation. Water is a basic human right that no one should be denied,” the post added.
It is “urgent” to allow at least some water and electricity to reach the enclave in order to save children’s lives, said Unicef regional director Edouard Beigbeder from Deir el-Balah in central Gaza in a video message.
