Severe heat wave adds to misery of people in Gaza, already under deadly Israeli offensive that killed thousands since last October.
At least two Palestinian children have lost their lives due to a heat wave in Gaza, the UN refugee agency UNRWA said on Sunday.
“We received reports that at least two children died due to the heat,” UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini said in a statement. “What more to endure: death, hunger, disease, displacement, and now living in greenh ouses-like structures under scorching heat,” he added. A severe heat wave has added to the misery of Palestinians in Gaza, already under a deadly Israeli offensive that killed more than 34,400 people and injured thousands since a Hamas attack last October that killed nearly 1,200 people.“Displaced people have access to less than 1 L of water per person per day for drinking, washing and bathing, against the 15 L minimum according to Sphere Standards,” it added.
Israel stands accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice. An interim ruling in January ordered Tel Aviv to stop genocidal acts and take measures to guarantee that humanitarian assistance is provided to civilians in Gaza.Gaza Contact Group, Türkiye, discuss boosting Palestine's recognition
