🇵🇸UNICEF warns of 'man-made drought' in Gaza as Israel razes vital infrastructure | The Cradle
Israeli bombardment and border restrictions leave families without clean water, medical care, or access to basic nutrition supplies.
Gaza is facing a man-made drought as its water systems collapse under sustained Israeli bombardment, the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) warned on 20 June, calling attention to catastrophic shortages in water, #food, and medical access across the besieged enclave.
“Children will begin to die of thirst … Just 40 percent of drinking water production facilities remain functional,” #UNICEF spokesperson James Elder told reporters in Geneva. “We are way below emergency standards in terms of drinking water for people in Gaza.”
