UN official: Gaza newborns are below normal size. 180 women give birth every day in the devastated Strip while they suffer from hunger and dehydration.

He added that he "left Gaza - which he visited in recent days - feeling afraid for a million women and girls in Gaza, 650,000 of whom are of reproductive age"
