Mothers in Gaza cry out for food and water for babies

Rather than focusing on teaching their children the proper discipline, he held certain parents accountable for their excessive use of social media.

“There is no water and no food to eat,” she told the charity ActionAid, which has shared her story.

“My little girl has a rash on her skin due to the lack of cleanliness here. Our situation is very difficult. How do you drink water? Is it enough for you and the baby? Of course not! There is no water to drink. There is no clean water. We barely quench our thirst.”

“Have been wanting to eat since the morning but there is no bread,” Khitam reported of her other four children.

She gave birth during the conflict and related how, just two days after giving birth, Israeli bombing forced her to leave her home.

“I was carrying my daughter and running. We were walking under missiles and shelling, sitting for a while to rest on the pavement and in the streets.”

Tens of thousands of pregnant women, according to ActionAid, are going without food, and mothers are so undernourished that they are unable to breastfeed their newborns.

Spokesperson Riham Jafari, said: “Mothers are being forced to watch helplessly as their children scream and cry with hunger, while they are utterly powerless to do anything.”
