Fourth infant dies from cold in Gaza in 72 hours

GAZA, December 26, 2024 (WAFA) – An infant in Gaza died today due to extreme cold and dropping temperatures, marking the fourth such death in the past 72 hours.

Medical sources confirmed that the baby succumbed to the cold weather, which has worsened the already dire conditions in the region.

The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza has left many families without adequate shelter and resources. According to local health officials, the lack of food security among mothers is contributing to a rise in health issues among children, further straining medical facilities and emergency services.

The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza since October 2023 has so far resulted in at least 45,227 documented Palestinian fatalities, with over 107,573 others injured.

Thousands of victims are feared trapped under rubble, inaccessible to emergency and civil defense teams due to Israeli attacks.

Israel's genocidal attacks continue unabated despite calls from the UN Security Council for an immediate ceasefire and directives from the International Court of Justice urging measures to prevent genocide and alleviate the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza.
