UNICEF Calls for Baby Evacuation Amidst Gaza Hospital Shelling
Imagine tiny babies, some born too early, needing special care inside hospitals in a place where fighting is happening.
The United Nations children's group, UNICEF, is worried about these babies in Gaza City.
The hospitals are being shelled.
There's no safe place for the babies to go right now.
The babies are in incubators, but there aren't enough for each baby.
The plan is to move them, even though it's dangerous.
They might get infections or their oxygen could run out.
One baby, Narges, lost her mother and faces these risks.
UNICEF is urgently trying to help these vulnerable newborns.
UNICEF calls for the immediate evacuation of at least 25 babies in Gaza City.
The babies, many premature, are in incubators and face shelling.
Evacuation is risky due to potential exposure to infection and lack of resources.
Some babies are sharing incubators, and there's a shortage of them.
Israel has reportedly denied requests to import more incubators.
