🚨 The United Nations has sounded the alarm as more than 299,370 tonnes of solid waste continue to accumulate in and around the densely populated areas of the Gaza Strip. This mounting waste poses serious health risks to the residents.
According to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), unimpeded humanitarian access and a ceasefire are crucial to restoring humane living conditions in the region. Without these measures, the situation remains dire for countless individuals seeking safety and stability.
Amidst these challenges, UNRWA teams are stepping up to support the most vulnerable. They are providing mental health services to children inside shelter centers through specialized activities like psychological relief, relaxation and stimulation sessions, and purposeful games. These efforts aim to bring some semblance of normalcy and hope to the young minds affected by the ongoing crisis. 🌟🧒🎮
