Young refugee couple in Gaza pinning hopes on Canada as they prepare for difficult birth
Description
February 11, 2024
There are deep concerns about Israel’s planned invasion of Rafah. A ground operation there could cut off the region’s main supply route for food, water and medical supplies. And one young couple is particularly anxious about Israel’s next move. The couple is expecting their second child and is desperate for adequate medical care. As David Akin explains, they are pinning their hopes on Canada to find them a space to give birth.
