00:00 We now go with our correspondent in Gaza, Nur Harseen, to learn about the latest updates in the Palestinian enclave.
00:05 Days pass and winter arrived here to the Gaza Strip
00:11 and actually this fact is adding to the suffering of the people.
00:15 Especially now most of the displaced people are actually staying in tents,
00:21 plastic tents that are not strong enough to protect them from the rain and
00:26 the wind.
00:29 Palestinian families are now suffering in this very cold winter.
00:32 Palestinian Health Ministry reported more than 400 cases of diseases
00:37 that arrived to the hospital and they are talking about more cases actually,
00:42 but they did not manage to report them inside the hospitals due to the
00:47 unhealthy environment here in the refugee camps, adding the fact that there is a lack of blankets, lack of clothes,
00:54 the very non-strong tents that are not protecting people and children from the cold.
01:01 So this helped in spreading the
01:04 disease and also cold and flu among people in the camps and also
01:10 children. The Palestinian Health Ministry here in Gaza have been for weeks calling upon the UN, the World Health
01:17 Organization and the international community to intervene and find a solution for
01:23 the cases of these families and at least allow more medicine to enter the Gaza Strip.
01:30 Noharazin, Telsour, Gaza.
01:33 out.
