Save the Children director: 'Everyone is seeking shelter' in Gaza Ordinary life in Gaza is suspended. The Palestinian enclave of 2.4 million people, roughly the size of Malta, is under siege with constant Israeli air bombardment and the looming prospect of a ground offensive. Health authorities say dozens of children have died in the air strikes over the past 72 hours. In Perspective, we focus on the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza for children, and what is being done to help them during the crisis. Jason Lee is Save the Children's Country Director for the Palestinian Territories. He's been speaking to FRANCE 24's Gavin Lee.
