GAZA: Like thousands of Gaza children, Yasmine Al-Shanbari, 3, is not only suffering from the upheaval of war all around them. She is ravaged by skin disease and no relief is in sight, with medicine scarce and few hospitals functioning in the Israeli-besieged enclave.
Yasmine Al-Shanbari, a Palestinian girl with a skin infection, looks on as she is held by her father, amid Israel-Hamas conflict, in Jabalia in the northern Gaza Strip Aug 5, 2024.
Tiny little insects were visibly flitting around her face, while piles of garbage rotted in the high summer heat outside. Hamas, the Palestinian militant group that rules Gaza, set off the war when its militants stormed over the border into Israel on Oct 7, killing 1,200 people and taking over 250 hostages, according to Israeli tallies.
Displaced child Mohammed Abu Obaid, who suffers from skin disease, poses for a picture next to his father, at a makeshift tent camp in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza Strip, Monday, July 29, 2024. Skin diseases are running rampant in Gaza, health officials say, from appalling conditions in overcrowded tent camps housing hundreds of thousands of Palestinians driven from their homes.
