Severe food poverty affecting 9 out 10 children in Gaza: Unicef
"Children in #Gaza continue to suffer unimaginably from this war," the UN agency for Palestinian refugees said in a post to X social media.
The group said that the UN Children's Fund (Unicef) has reported that nine out of 10 children in Gaza "are experiencing severe food poverty".
Meanwhile, according to Oxfam, "many" people in Gaza "spend entire days without food".
"No child should face such horrific conditions: #CeasefireNow," Unrwa concluded in its post.
