Manage episode 497453590 series 2829213
UN agencies continue to draw attention to the dire conditions in Gaza, where food security experts warned this week of mounting evidence of famine and widespread starvation due to conflict, displacement and the near-total collapse of essential services.
Ricardo Pires, Communication Manager with the UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF), is fresh from a mission to the enclave, where a man-made drought is also looming.
He told UN News’ Daniel Johnson that lack of drinking water means children are dehydrated and at risk of disease as families resort to using contaminated water sources.
