As the Israel-Palestine conflict drags into its 11th month, the most vulnerable are paying the highest price. 🌍 With ongoing battles in Gaza, children are facing unimaginable hardships.

A recent polio outbreak has sparked an emergency vaccination campaign aimed at 640,000 children under the age of 10. This initiative is a glimmer of hope in an otherwise dire humanitarian crisis. 💉👶

Local parent Ahamed Sharaf shared his experience with CGTN: \"Since the conflict began, various diseases have raged in Gaza. I brought my son to a clinic in Deir al-Balah to ensure he's protected.\"

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) highlighted that while the vaccination efforts are making strides, true safety for these children can only be achieved through a permanent ceasefire. 🕊️

The situation in Gaza underscores the urgent need for peace to end the humanitarian disaster and safeguard the futures of its youngest residents.
