It’s about an ounce. It’s nothing, The rest of what they drink would be non-potable water. A lot of them have diarrheal disease and are getting sick as a consequence.” “I think one of my colleagues said she had bread yesterday for the first time in three days, and I can see in the videos and pictures that I’m sent that they’re looking thinner and thinner, as most of the population in Gaza is.” “They mention the suffering that they’re witnessing. They mention the children that they’re having to declare dead every day, and the immense burns and pain that they’re unable to relieve because of the strangulation of the healthcare system.” “People don’t appreciate the humanity of people in the Gaza Strip, despite the unthinkable and unprecedented situation that they are in, something that we would never have allowed to happen anywhere else in the world, in 2023.” Register Here (Registration for this event closes Noon, Wednesday, May 8) |
