UNICEF and the World Health Organization have been working to administer polio vaccines to 640,000 children in Gaza. But now, intense Israeli bombardments and massive population displacement in the enclave’s north have put the final phase on hold. Jonathan Crickx, chief of communications for UNICEF Palestine, told As It Happens host Nil Köksal that over 119,000 children in the north cannot be immunized under current conditions.
