“The footage of children being rescued from beneath the rubble, injured and in distress, while trembling in hospitals as they await treatment, portrays the immense horror these children are enduring.
But without humanitarian access, the deaths from attacks could be the tip of the iceberg.”
Adele Khodr, UNICEF Regional Director for the Middle East and North Africa on the escalating crisis in Gaza.
While some UNICEF supplies of water, medicine and hygiene kits have reached Gaza, we have many more life-saving supplies ready and waiting.
We're calling for all access crossings into Gaza to be opened for a safe, sustained and unimpeded access of humanitarian aid, including water, food, medical supplies, and fuel.
