“Six children and a nurse lost their lives due to the cold wave in the past days,” Ismail Thawabteh, who heads Gaza’s government media office, said on Monday.
“The lives of displaced Palestinians are in a real danger amid heavy rainfall and cold waves as their tents are worn out and don’t protect them,” Thawabteh said.
Many displaced civilians are living in makeshift tents amid worsening living conditions as temperatures drop. Families lack basic necessities such as clothing, bedding, and blankets, leaving many infants vulnerable to the cold.
Thawabteh held the US, Israel and their backers responsible for the deteriorating humanitarian conditions in the Palestinian territory.
Israel has killed more than 45,500 people in Gaza since Oct 7, 2023, despite a UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire.
In November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave.
