“We're constantly treating our children due to illnesses because of the mosquitoes.”
On Thursday, Palestinians in Gaza expressed concerns over the mounting piles of garbage near refugee tents, highlighting how it poses serious health risks to the displaced residents of Gaza.
They voiced worries about the spread of diseases through mosquitoes and other bugs, the presence of which has been increasing along with the growing piles of garbage. One displaced Palestinian said the accumulating garbage consists of “nylon, plastic, waste from petrol, animal faeces, and food leftovers”, which has led to air pollution and harm to the environment.
According to Nuseirat resident Mohamed Safi, the accumulation of garbage leads to the spread of terminal diseases and the presence of new cases of diseases “that cannot be treated by the antibiotics that are available to us in light of the war and the siege imposed on Gaza”.
