6,500 Gaza abortion cases
A report by the United Nations Population Fund warned that conditions for women and girls in Gaza are deteriorating despite a year having passed since the ceasefire. It noted that more than 6,500 miscarriages were recorded in the first nine months of 2026—over three times the number in the same period the previous year. More than 60% of pregnant women are anemic, and one in three pregnancies is high-risk. Reports of gender-based violence rose by 27% in the second quarter, while reports of child and forced marriage increased by 123%. The Fund’s assistance reached more than 727,000 women, girls and young people in Gaza and the West Bank. However, it warned that a $68 million funding shortfall threatens the continuation of services and called for stronger health care, protection and humanitarian support.
