A child died on Wednesday due to the severe cold in her family's tent in the Gaza Strip.

Local sources reported that the child was less than two months old and died in her family's tent in the Shuja'iyya neighborhood, east of Gaza City.

Yesterday, Tuesday, 6 children died due to the severe cold, while the condition of others was described as critical, according to what was confirmed by health sources in Gaza.

The people of the Gaza Strip suffer from a lack of shelter and medical treatment due to the occupation's aggression on the Strip, and the lack of heating methods due to the scarcity of fuel, in light of a severe polar cold wave.
