### Pregnant women and newborns are among the most vulnerable in conflict

UNFPA is critically concerned for women and girls in Gaza, including the estimated 43,580 pregnant women. These women are cut off from safe delivery services as hospitals come under attack and the health system unravels, with life-saving medicines, fuel and electricity running out.

**Help us deliver essential healthcare services to women in Gaza.**
