The war is having a devastating impact on Palestinian women and children in Gaza.

Thousands of expectant mothers are preparing to give birth in the middile of a conflict zone, but do not know where or how.

According to the United Nations Population Fund (UNPF), there are 50,000 pregnant women in the besieged territory, many suffering from a lack of regular check-ups and treatment because Gaza's healthcare system is on the brink of collapse due to the siege imposed by Israel on the territory.
