Khan Younis, Gaza Strip – For 11 days after giving birth last month, Rania Fadel could not hold her newborn son. The 24-year-old gave birth to twin boys, Ilyas and Yahya, on September 25. While Yahya was born healthy, Ilyas was admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit at Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, in southern Gaza, where he remained for nearly two weeks. Born prematurely, Ilyas weighed just 1.4 kilogrammes (3 pounds) at birth, according to his mother. He had medical issues affecting his blood and lungs, she said, and needed specialised care in an incubator. Rania herself was recovering from a Caesarean section when her son was taken into intensive care. For days, she could not hold him.
