JAKARTA - The UN Palestine Refugee Agency (UNRWA) admits that it is having difficulty caring for at least 50,000 pregnant women in the Gaza Strip. This is because Israel continues to launch attacks in the Palestinian enclave.
"There are around 50 thousand pregnant women in the Gaza Strip with more than 180 of them giving birth every day," UNRWA said in a written statement, citing Antara.
The UN agency said doctors and midwives are taking various measures to care for post-natal and high-risk pregnant women at the 7 UNRWA health centers that are still operating.
Israel bombarded the Gaza Strip from the air and land, blockading it and launching ground attacks in response to Hamas' cross-border attacks on October 7.
