“Nearly 42,000 people in #Gaza have life-changing injuries because of the war, according to @‌WHO. 

One in four is a child.

 UNRWA teams together with WHO & partners are sparing no efforts to make sure they are not left behind. Since the war began, they have provided essential psychosocial support to more than 30,000 persons with disabilities, with over 8,000 of them receiving assistive devices + rehabilitation services. Every day, across the region, #UNRWAworks to make a difference."
