With the health system in tatters, some nurses and doctors are volunteering to provide primary medical services from within displacement tents, including care for pregnant and postpartum women.

UNFPA has deployed six mobile maternal health units to provide emergency obstetric care, trained additional midwives, supported survivors of violence, and distributed lifesaving equipment and supplies to the few hospitals that remain partially operational.

We condemn the violence in Gaza, the West Bank, and Israel, and echo the UN Secretary-General’s call for a sustained humanitarian ceasefire and the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages by Hamas. The suffering must end and peace must prevail.
Thank you for not looking away from this crisis.
