A Palestinian man reacts as the body of his daughter is unearthed from under the rubble after an Israeli strike on Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip on October 22, 2023 amid the ongoing battles between Israel and Palestinian groups. AFPPIX: The lives of at least 120 newborn babies on incubators in war-torn Gaza's hospitals are at risk as fuel runs out in the besieged enclave, the UN children's agency warned Sunday.
“We have currently 120 neonates who are in incubators, out of which we have 70 neonates with mechanical ventilation, and of course this is where we are extremely concerned,“ said UNICEF spokesman Jonathan Crickx. Amid widespread electricity cuts, the World Health Organization warned on Thursday that hospitals had already run out of fuel for generators.Twenty aid trucks crossed from Egypt into Gaza on Saturday but there was no fuel in the consignment.
Gaza's health ministry said on Saturday that 130 premature babies were in danger of dying due to the lack of fuel.
