‘I’m slowly losing my daughter’ says Gazan mother as girl starves

Story: Nasma Ayad in a hospital in Gaza is afraid that time is exhausted for her eight -year -old daughter Jana, who starved to avoid the fate of her sister who died last month.

Jana has difficulty in moving and talking and urgently needs medical evacuation, Ayad says …

… As Israel has been under international pressure on the increasing hunger between the destruction of Gaza and the population of 2.2 million since the beginning of the war.

“My daughter will slowly see the complications of vision. Even her legs cannot even move her legs to go to the toilet. I slowly feel that I lose my daughter slowly – what she suffers multiplies.”

Jan’s sister Joury died on July 20.

His mother said that the child had kidney problems that are exacerbated by malnutrition.

After showing signs of weakness and delayed growth, Jana received malnutrition treatment in a clinic in Deir Al-Balah last year.

Ayad says that he recurred due to health services and lack of food.

Health officials added Jana and Joury to a list of patients in need of release last September.

This evacuation never passed.

It’s too late for Joury, but Ayad still gives some hope for Jana.

“So far, my daughter’s referral, siege, closure of borders and the conditions we live in waiting.

Gazan Health officials, at least 90 children than 150 people died for hunger reasons, he says.
