In a critical development amidst ongoing violence, the United Nations has commenced polio vaccinations for children in Gaza. This initiative comes at a time when Israeli forces are intensifying their military operations in the West Bank and Gaza.
Israeli forces have now entered the fourth day of a significant operation in the West Bank, resulting in the deaths of at least 20 individuals, including a Hamas commander. The siege on Jenin and raids in Hebron have left a trail of devastation across the region.
Meanwhile, air strikes by Israeli forces in Gaza have reportedly resulted in the deaths of at least 48 people today. Despite the conflict, the UN’s vaccination campaign aims to protect children from the threat of polio, highlighting the urgent need for humanitarian efforts even in times of intense conflict.
