Since the start of the conflict in Gaza, pregnant women are now three times more likely to miscarry. And if they carry their baby to full term, they are now three times more likely to die in childb...
More than 13,000 women will give birth in the next month in #Gaza (UN). We spoke to @KaamilAhmed for a @guardian article covering the constant trauma of pregnant women & new mothers, including Yasmeen who gave birth to premature triplets during the war. https://t.co/mfMYLST9AW

“Women are giving birth without any pain relief whatsoever, living in fear, not being able to access any doctor or antenatal care.” @madeleinejm @careintuk #Gaza

Some women in Gaza have spent the duration of the war pregnant, but the constant bombing, death and chaos have cast a shadow over what should be a time of joy

Testimony shared from aid workers in Gaza shows the horror facing Palestinians in the south right now. Israel's forced displacement is effectively corralling people like cattle into the dangerous, bombed-out ruin of Khan Younis. Illegal, immoral, inhuman.

The UK Government must act immediately to prevent military operations in Rafah, warns @careintuk adviser @madeleinejm "Ministers cannot delay any longer before suspending licenses for arms sales to Israel." https://t.co/eqYJqGEXTT

Israel has ordered Palestinians to leave parts of Rafah in advance of a long-expected attack on the city.

As Israel steps up its military offensive on #Rafah, #Gaza, people share their fear & anxiety at the thought of being displaced again. The world is watching. World leaders & governments must do everything they can to avert this human disaster. #AllEyesOnRafah #CeasefireNOW

My heart bursts with pride that I get to call these amazing people my colleagues at @MedicalAidPal . But it is shattering in pain and fear what is being done to them. The world must act to save the people of #Gaza before it is too late.
Our team in Gaza are still working! Despite bombardment, siege, and the horrors all around them, colleagues are procuring and distributing whatever mattresses, blankets, hygiene kits and medical supplies they can find locally! I have never been prouder to work at @MedicalAidPal
