Palestinians in Gaza ‘denied aid, protection, dignity’

James Elder, a UNICEF spokesman, says the situation in Gaza is “dire”. “It should break our hearts that it’s been allowed to get to this point,” he told Al Jazeera, adding that as soon as he walked into the hospital in Deir el-Balah, he found a little boy named Ali who was asleep in the family home five days ago when it was struck. “He fell three floors and landed in rubble. I met his mother who said the two other siblings have been killed. This has gone on for 250 days,” Elder said. Now Palestinians are living in “sweltering heat… in tents crammed together in a breathless space with 40-degree heat on sand,” he said. “They’re being denied aid, protection, dignity.” Subscribe to our channel: http://bit.ly/AJSubscribe Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/AJEnglish Find us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/aljazeera Check our website: http://www.aljazeera.com/ Check out our Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/aljazeeraenglish/ Download AJE Mobile App: https://aje.io/AJEMobile #aljazeeraenglish #Palestine #Gaza #GazaAirRaids #GazaAirStrikes #GazaUnderAttack #GazaHumanitarianCrisis #Israel #IsraelHamasWar #GazaWar #IsraelWar #IsraelPalestineWar #IsraelHamasWar #IsraelGazaWar
