The second stage of the UN-led polio vaccination campaign in Gaza is scheduled to commence on Monday, October 14, as announced by UNICEF chief Catherine Russell. This phase aims to vaccinate approximately 590,000 children under the age of 10 in the region.
Russell emphasized the importance of area-specific humanitarian pauses that have been agreed upon by all parties involved. She stressed that respecting these pauses is crucial for the successful vaccination of children, highlighting that without them, the task becomes impossible.
