UNICEF Humanitarian Action: OPT Donor Update 25 Aug 2006
UNICEF REQUESTS US$ 8 MILLION TO MEET IMMEDIATE NEEDS OF CHILDREN AND WOMEN
Key issues facing children are:
- High death toll among children: 44 killed since outbreak of hostilities, almost a quarter were below 10 years old. Some 335 children remain in detention facilities.
- In Gaza, stocks of essential medicines and disposables are at critical levels. Electricity and water shortages, along with reductions in services, are hurting children.
- Children are living in an environment of extraordinary violence, insecurity and fear; demand for psychosocial assistance has risen significantly.
- Severely curtailed opportunities for safe play and recreation over summer holidays.
- Funding gap of $8 million for Back-to-School campaign, health, water and sanitation. http://www.reliefweb.int/rw/RWB.NSF/db900SID/LSGZ-6SZGS2?OpenDocument
There are simply no words to describe this crisis caused by Israel. Facts do not speak to the utter inhumanity of this situation and what happened in Lebanon. Damn you Israel, damn you to hell.
