The UN Office for the Co-ordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) on Monday expressed concern over reports that a one-month-old baby in Gaza died from hypothermia. The death was announced by the Health Ministry in Gaza. “This is the eighth such child death due to the cold in less than three weeks. These deaths were preventable had the items required to protect these children been accessible to their families,” OCHA said in a statement.
