Maryam Abu Mustafa: The Bitter Story of a Child’s Gradual Death in Gaza + Images
According to the English section of webangah News Agency, citing Mehr news Agency, the Palestine Information Center has reported on the physical condition of Maryam, a one-and-a-half-year-old Palestinian girl suffering from multiple diseases. Though, the ongoing famine and war in Gaza have made treatment impossible for any of her conditions.
The report adds that under siege and amid warfare within the devastated heart of Gaza-surrounded by explosions and gunpowder smoke-a tragic and shocking story unfolds. Maryam Abu Mustafa is just nineteen months old but battles slow death. She suffers from severe malnutrition, cerebral atrophy, and perilous infections.
According to the report, these illnesses could normally be managed with proper medical care. Though, in besieged Gaza-where hospitals are depleted of medicine and equipment-every moment brings maryam closer to a painful nightmare.
Doctors in Gaza watch helplessly as children like Maryam suffer without resources. Shortages of medicine, power outages causing life-saving equipment failures have turned hospitals into soulless buildings where patients and their families look toward an uncertain future with only hope and prayer.
