Question to the Department for International Development:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what help she plans to give to children in Gaza who require support to deal with trauma related to bombing.
More than half of DFID’s £3million Rapid Response Facility is supporting the provision of health and psycho-social care for women and children. DFID also supports the UN Relief and Works Agency, who are deploying counsellors to all Gaza shelters to mitigate the impact of psychological trauma sustained by civilians.
