Скачать или смотреть Childhood Under Siege In Gaza | Foreign Correspondent

For the one million children of Gaza growing up isn’t guaranteed. Since the war began nearly two years ago, more than 18,000 Palestinian children have passed away. With no reliable source of nutritious food and water, life is a day-to-day prospect. Even trying to find food can be a deadly proposition.

On Foreign Correspondent reporter Stephanie March and a team of Gazan journalists deliver an intimate, heart wrenching insight into the toll this war is taking on Gaza’s littlest. Because independent access to Gaza for reporters is banned by the Israeli Defence Forces, Stephanie has been working with local journalists to film with families willing to share their day to day lives. Over months they’ve documented life from different parts of Gaza.

We meet a 10-year-old boy who shelters in a tent with his parents and two siblings in an existence that’s become boring, uncomfortable and very dangerous. The sound of bombs and drones are ever present. Another teenager has an infected knee that isn’t getting better. If it doesn’t heal, there are fears he could lose his leg to amputation. Simple injuries can spiral into dangerous medical conditions in Gaza because of malnutrition, filthy conditions and a lack of medical supplies. And we spend time with a 9-year-old girl who weighs half what she should amid famine in Gaza City. She's one of thousands who are desperately hoping to get treatment in other countries at a time when few western countries are willing to take them.

All these children just want the war to end so they can live their lives. In the words of a 10-year-old: “There’s no childhood left in Gaza”.
