Gaza’s Health Ministry announced that a vaccination initiative has started in Gaza, focusing on children under three to administer missed crucial vaccines, following the Israeli occupation's denial of vaccinations to more than 600,000 children amid its ongoing offensive in Gaza.

However, activists, civil society groups, and local sources in Gaza argued that these vaccines are futile while Israel plans to persist in its attacks on Palestinian civilians, including infants and children. They have urged international communities to intervene and pressure Israel to end its attacks on Gaza and allow the unrestricted entry of healthcare supplies into Gaza.
