The UN’s Population Fund (UNFPA) said international law must be upheld to protect people who need medical treatment as the Israeli military’s restrictions on travel in the occupied West Bank have endangering pregnant women.
“These restrictions could threaten the lives of more than 50 women who give birth every day” in the West Bank, the UN agency said.
In a post on social media, the agency quoted a Palestinian mother who was forced to wait three weeks to have stitches removed after a caesarean section birth.
“Snipers were targeting anything that moved on the road,” the mother from West Bank’s Tulkarem City was quoted as saying.
