UNRWA/T/HJBA/11 Special food for underweight infants following rehydration treatment: Baqa'a Camp, East Jordan. Five month old Khaled Hussein is suffering from reverse low progressing anemia. Currently he weighs just over four kilos. Health facilities in the Baqa'a refugee camp are able to cope with his problem. Every day Khaled is left in the rehydration/nutrition clinic for several hours where he is fed special foods by a qualified nurse, given the necessary injections and checked for progress by a doctor.

Title: Deir Balah Refugee Camp, Gaza Strip.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees. UNRWA/T/RGDS/2. Deir Balah refugee camp: Gaza Strip. Deir el Balah camp is the smallest of the eight refugee camps administered by UNRWA in the Gaza Strip. Approximately 7,000 Palestine refugees live in the UNRWA shelters, with an average of four to five persons to a room ten feet square. There are more than 375,000 people (265,000 are refugees) crowded into the tiny strip of land known as the Gaza Strip. The overpopulation would be critical enough if the land were fertile, but the area is largely made up of desert sand dunes and has never been independently viable. The exodus of 40,000-45,000 refugees as well as some residents of the Strip following the June 1967 hostilities has had little impact on the overcrowded conditions and opportunities for employment are even more limited than before. 869DB.
