Description
"The malnutrition I am exposed to threatens my life and the life of the foetus in my womb" says Fatima Arafa who is six months pregnant, as she sits at a hospital in Gaza City to receive a blood transfusion to help combat the lack of basic food provisions needed for a healthy delivery. "There are eight to nine miscarriages per day, and we do not know whether this is due to the effects of war and explosive materials or due to a lack of nutrition" reports a doctor at the hospital.
