Gaza’s southern town, Rafah, is facing a dire humanitarian crisis as it prepares for an impending Israeli attack. The town’s population has swelled in recent weeks as Palestinians flock to find refuge from the fighting. With nowhere left to flee, the estimated 1.5 million people in Rafah are facing panic and despair. The United Nations warns of a catastrophic impact, emphasizing the vulnerability of the 600,000 children in the town. The situation has strained the already struggling humanitarian aid system and has raised concerns about a possible famine.
