Israel-Hamas war: risk of an “explosion” in the number of child deaths in the Gaza Strip. The UN Security Council meets in New York on Tuesday to decide on a new text demanding an ‘immediate’ ceasefire.
The United States warned this weekend that the Algerian text was not acceptable, threatening to veto it. At least 90% of children under the age of five in Gaza are affected by one or more infectious diseases, according to this report from Unicef.
