⚠️ 🇵🇸 An estimated 564,000 children in Gaza are living in "critical or catastrophic" shelter conditions as winter rains flood displacement camps, Save the Children said. Israel, as the occupying power, "must be held accountable for any child deaths that result," the group said, noting that “tents, shelter kits and fuel are waiting at Gaza's borders while children sleep in floodwater, because the Israeli authorities are blocking their entry.” The group's Middle East regional director said “this is a choice, and children are paying the price." Citing an assessment by the Palestine Shelter Cluster of UN agencies and NGOs, Save the Children reported: 🔹 1.2 million people, 58% of Gaza's population, live in critical or catastrophic shelter 🔹 Israel has repeatedly blocked the caravans the ceasefire promised as an alternative to tents 🔹 48% of families burn plastic, tires or garbage to cook, which releases toxic fumes that cause respiratory illness and carbon monoxide poisoning. 84% still can't heat their shelters 🔹 Winter clothing covers just 1% of the over 1 million people who need it 🔹 464,000 people live in sites at high risk of flooding 🔹 60% of the $283 million needed for winter is unfunded Last winter, 11 children reportedly died of hypothermia. the group said.
