UNFPA Executive Director Dr Natalia Kanem's message on the crisis in Gaza. UNFPA joins the call for a humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza, so that aid can reach those who have been affected by the complete siege of Gaza this October. Among the 2.2 million affected population in Gaza, 1 in 4 are women and girls of reproductive age, around 572,000, and they need urgent access to reproductive health supplies and services.

In Gaza, 50,000 women are currently pregnant. Almost 160 women will give birth every day amid the violence. Most are unable to access health services.
