The Gaza health ministry has said it has run out of children’s vaccinations, a development which could lead to dire consequences on children’s health and will increase the spread of diseases, Al Jazeera reports.

Some 360,000 cases of diseases have been detected in crowded shelters for the 1.9 million people displaced by Israel’s military onslaught, the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said in its latest situation report yesterday.
