UNICEF: Children in Gaza exposed to months of hunger, trauma and displacement ▪️Children bear the brunt of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, they are exposed to months of hunger, trauma and displacement, said Tess Ingram, spokeswoman for the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF). ▪️A recent UNICEF study that showed that 90 percent of children under two years of age in Gaza only have access to cereals and dairy products, while for healthy development it is necessary to consume five food groups, she explains. "We are very concerned about the amount of nutrients that young children are getting for their growth and development. The long-term impact of war on the mental health of these children is equally worrying. We see traumatic stress reactions in so many of the children we come into contact with. In other conflicts, children can experience trauma, but they have the possibility to go to safety, and that does not happen in Gaza ," she points out.
