Children in Gaza
Children are dying at an alarming rate – more than 14,000 are reported to have been killed in this current conflict and thousands more have been injured. Around 1.7 million people in the Gaza Strip are estimated to have been internally displaced – half of them children. They do not have enough access to water, food, fuel and medicine. Their homes have been destroyed; their families torn apart.UNICEF and its partners are on the ground in Gaza delivering immediate humanitarian support.
The ongoing surge of hostilities in the State of Palestine and Israel is taking a horrendous toll on the lives of children and their families.
UNICEF with its partners, continuously provides humanitarian assistance. In mid-October a second round of an emergency polio vaccination campaign started aiming to vaccinate 591,700 children under 10 with a second dose of the polio vaccine. The first round, held at the beginning of September, reached 95% of eligible children. To stop poliovirus transmission, at least 90% of children need to receive two doses.
