“It is absolutely horrific — even for those whose mission is to serve others,” says UNRWA Sam Rose to CNN. “Our staff are collapsing in offices, fainting from hunger and thirst.” Survival in #Gaza now means searching for one meal a day — or going days on end without any food.

Los niños y niñas de Gaza siguen sufriendo un infierno mientras el mundo mira. Han perdido a seres queridos, sus hogares, sus escuelas y apenas le quedan esperanzas. El alto el fuego definitivo debe llegar ya.

Una vez más, la población de Gaza es obligada a desplazarse, pero no hay ningún lugar al que ir. Ningún sitio es seguro y todo está destruido. Las familias lo pierden todo cada vez que se desplazan. No les queda nada, solo desesperanza y sufrimiento. ¿Hasta cuándo?
