Trapped in North Gaza

Jeremy Stoner, Save the Children director, says the situation in northern Gaza is not fit for human survival and yet there are about 130,000 children under 10 trapped in those conditions, not to mention the thousands of older children and their families.

Since 6 October, when Israeli forces launched a siege on northern Gaza, the area has been cut off from supplies of food, water and medicine.

Stoner points out that humanitarian aid to Gaza has hit an all-time low with the appalling situation in northern Gaza the tip of a terrible iceberg.

He calls for safe humanitarian access to be granted immediately to allow food, water, winter supplies and medical assistance to reach those who are trapped in the death zone in the north.
