UNICEF Expresses Concern Over Vaccine Access in Gaza

UNICEF has reported that essential items, including syringes for vaccination and baby milk formula bottles, are being denied entry into Gaza by Israeli authorities. This restriction hinders the organization’s efforts to provide vital medical aid to children affected by the ongoing conflict. UNICEF acknowledges the challenges in securing these supplies, particularly regarding the logistical requirements of vaccine storage and transportation. The agency emphasizes the critical importance of maintaining a steady vaccination campaign amidst the fragile ceasefire, and is working to mitigate the impact of these obstacles.
