Itâs difficult, if not impossible, for mothers to reach a safe place to deliver their babies. [USA for UNFPA]( In Gaza, pregnant and breastfeeding women are under life threatening conditions. Pregnant women are three times more likely to die during childbirth, and miscarriages have increased by 300% since conflict erupted last year. 46,000 pregnant women face crisis levels of hunger â 5,500 of whom will give birth each month. These pregnant women live in uncertainty about whether they will be able to safely deliver and provide for their babies. âAll I think about now is how I am going to get to the hospital to deliver my baby,â Haneen, who is in her ninth month of pregnancy, told us. [Haneen in Gaza]( âI donât know when I will go into labor. What's more, the place where I live now is not appropriate at all. There is no place for a baby. The whole family lives in one room and there is no space for a newborn.â The damage and destruction of 70% of Gazaâs civilian infrastructure and the dangers of travel have made it difficult, if not impossible, for mothers to reach a safe place to deliver their babies. Many are forced to give birth in tents, on the street, or on hospital floors in unsanitary conditions. To date, UNFPA has delivered enough medicine, supplies, and aid to support over half of all births in Gaza through this crisis. But as tens of thousands more expectant mothers like Haneen face danger and uncertainty, they are counting on your continued support today. [Will you make a gift to deliver lifesaving care to pregnant women, their newborns, and those suffering in Gaza and wherever your help is most needed?]( [MAKE AN EMERGENCY GIFT]( We condemn the violence in Gaza, the West Bank, and Israel, and echo the UN Secretary-Generalâs call for a sustained humanitarian ceasefire and the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages by Hamas. The suffering must end and peace must prevail.
