SaltWire's Atlantic regional weather forecast for October 23, 2023 | SaltWireGAZA - Doctors at a Gaza neonatal intensive care unit are scrambling to find fuel and basic medicines for their tiny patients who could die within minutes if their incubators lose power in the Palestinian enclave under Israeli siege.
Ashraf al-Qidra, spokesperson for the Gaza health ministry, said there were 130 newborn babies in electric incubators across the Gaza Strip. "We are appealing for the whole world to help with fuel. We have even asked our public and private petrol stations to donate whatever they can save of fuel to help save lives in hospitals."
A third aid convoy entered the Rafah crossing from Egypt on Monday bound for Gaza, but with far fewer trucks than the 100 per day that U.N. officials say are needed to meet essential needs.Doctors at Shifa hospital say they are waiting for relatives to come forward and name a baby whose mother Fatima Al-Hersh's house was bombed. They said they saved the baby but not the mother or the rest of her 11-member family.
The U.N. humanitarian office said about 1.4 million of Gaza's 2.3 million population were now internally displaced, with many seeking refuge in overcrowded U.N. emergency shelters.
