About 130,000 children aged under 10 have been trapped for 50 days in areas in northern Gaza that are almost entirely inaccessible to aid workers and not receiving food or medical supplies despite warnings of famine, said the international aid group Save the Children. Children living in North Gaza and Gaza governates have been almost completely cut off from supplies of food, water, and medicine since Oct 6 when Israeli forces declared the area to be a closed military zone, with the independent Famine Review Committee saying that famine is either imminent or likely already occurring in the area. Medical supplies to the area have also stopped and about 10,000 children in Jabalia, Beit Lahiya and Beit Hanoun were not reached at all by the recent polio vaccine campaign.
