<\/p>\n\u201cAlmost 60 children have been killed in Gaza in a week. How many more families need to lose loved ones before the international community takes action? Where can children run to when airstrikes rain down on their homes?,\u201d Jason Lee, Save the Children\u2019s Country Director for Gaza, said.<\/p>\n
\u201cSave the Children is calling for an immediate ceasefire by all parties, as 58 children in Gaza and two children in southern Israel have been killed in the last week,\u201d the organization said in a statement on Sunday.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
At least 197 people have been killed so far in the blockaded city, the Palestinian Ministry of Health said on Monday, adding that the number was expected to rise as rescuers continue to dig through the rubble of damaged buildings.<\/p>\n
The raids have damaged power lines across the city and fuel supplies \u2013 the soul source of power and electricity in the Gaza Strip \u2013 are low, according to Save the Children.<\/p>\n
Health facilities and civilian infrastructures could soon be left without the power they need to deliver crucial supplies and emergency treatment, the organization said.<\/p>\n
The\u00a0International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) on Sunday released a similar statement, condemning the raids and saying Israel\u2019s \u201cbombardment\u201d in Gaza is preventing the ICRC and other organizations from helping civilians injured or affected by the bombings.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor people in Gaza, access to hospitals and other vital infrastructure has become very complicated because of the incessant airstrikes and major damage to roads and buildings,\u201d Robert Mardini, ICRC\u2019s director-general, said.<\/p>\n
Critically ill and injured children are also unable to leave the blockaded city for treatment, Save the Children said.<\/p>\n
\u201cFamilies in Gaza, and our staff, are telling us that they are at breaking point \u2013 they are living in hell with nowhere to seek refuge and seemingly no end in sight. Now basic supplies and power are running low, compounding and further fueling this humanitarian catastrophe,\u201d the charity\u2019s director added.<\/p>\n
According to the UN, the latest damage to infrastructure has also left 480,000 people in Gaza with limited or no access to water.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
