27-Day-Old Palestinian Newborn Dies from Cold in Gaza

A 27-day-old Palestinian newborn has tragically died from extreme cold in Khan Younis, Gaza, highlighting the worsening humanitarian crisis in the region. According to Gaza’s Health Ministry, this brings the number of children who have succumbed to winter conditions this season to eight. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians remain displaced, living in tents or unsafe structures after Israel’s recent war destroyed nearly 90 percent of Gaza’s civilian infrastructure. Despite a ceasefire, ongoing hardships continue to threaten civilian lives, underscoring the urgent need for humanitarian assistance and reconstruction efforts in the densely populated territory.
