New lives are born in Gaza during a horrific war. However, the extreme conditions have the greatest impact on newborns and unborn children.
According to the UN, one in ten newborns is underweight or preterm due to severe food shortages. Additionally, the number of stillbirths, miscarriages, and congenital defects has increased.
Malak Brees, who is seven months pregnant, is at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, a city in the south.
“I’m frightened that I could have a premature birth at any time and that my amniotic fluid isn’t enough for the baby to grow in,” .
Malak was surprised to become pregnant with her second kid. She lost a significant amount of amniotic fluid six weeks ago, endangering her unborn child.
