Baby Mohammed freezes to death as Gaza battles winter and displacement

Eman Abu al-Khair, a mother-in-law, clutches a small bag of her infant’s clothes inside her tent while Khan Younis, a Gaza Strip resident, is pale and weary. Her child had already died from hypothermia.

The 34-year-old mother is still grieving after losing her son Mohammed, who has been missing for just 14 days. She simply couldn’t keep him warm enough despite the destruction caused by Israel’s genocidal war against Gaza.

Eman tells Al Jazeera, “I can still hear his tiny cries in my ears,” pointing out the pain on her face. I go to sleep and leave, unable to accept that his crying and awakening me at night will never occur again.

After being displaced from their home in the east of Khan Younis, the family’s tragedy started late on December 13 in al-Mawasi, west of Khan Younis, in the southern Gaza Strip.

[Abdelhakim Abu Riash/Al Jazeera] Mother Eman Abu Al-Khair and her 2-year-old daughter Mona checking baby Mohammed’s clothes bag after his death.

Eman put her baby to sleep, but when she woke up later, she discovered him in a worrying condition.

Without adequate shelter&nbsp or clothing for a newborn, there was no protection for Mohammed because the temperature had dropped.

His body was ice-cold, he claimed. He was barely breathing, his hands and feet were frozen, and his face was stiff and yellow, she says.

“My husband immediately woke up so that we could take him to the hospital,” he said. “But he couldn’t find any way to get us there.”

The father couldn’t even travel to the hospital because it was late at night and the rain was still pouring.

The family waited until morning because there was no other choice.

We rushed toward the hospital as soon as the sun set, according to Eman. “We arrived too late, sadly,” he said. His condition was already critical.

The infant’s deterioration at the Red Crescent Hospital in Khan Younis shocked the doctors there. His convulsive symptoms caused doctors to rush him into the paediatric intensive care unit because his face had completely turned blue.

Before he passed away on December 15 after two days in intensive care.

“My baby didn’t have any medical issues. His tests revealed no illness. His tiny body “couldn’t stand the extreme cold inside the tents,” Eman says, wiping her tears in her eyes.

An infant died on Tuesday as a result of a severe body temperature drop brought on by the recent extreme cold in Gaza as a result of the ministry of health’s announcement to address the death of the child.

Mohammed Khalil Abu al-Khair, who was two weeks old, had died from acute hypothermia, according to the ministry’s press release.

Abu al-Khair, who arrived at the hospital two days ago and was taken to the intensive care unit, passed away yesterday, according to the statement.

After the ministry announced three similar deaths in Gaza the week before Mohammed’s death, there are now four more children who have died as a result of the cold weather.

Celebration turned into destruction

After a grueling pregnancy that, according to Eman, was filled with hardship and the war was still raging, the Abu al-Khair family welcomed Mohammed on December 1 in a state of joy and celebration.

“My pregnancy was a lot of work,” she said. I was exhausted and we had to endure extremely harsh conditions and famine,” she claims.

“But Mohammed’s well-being and birth gave me all my suffering.” I had no idea that after just two weeks, we would lose him.

Eman makes desperate attempts to secure the tent and seal every opening to protect the baby from the cold while Khalil, the baby’s father, tried to secure the tent and keep the baby warm with every piece of clothing and the blankets she had.

But they made no end in themselves.

As you can see, we are residing in tents on the street. What exactly can a piece of cloth or nylon do? She yells while circling the tent.

The cold is unfathomable, he says. When we wake up in the morning, water reaches our bedding from below.

After their two-year-old daughter Mona, who had grown up during the conflict that started in October 2023, Eman and Khalil gave birth to Mohammed, Eman and Khalil’s second child.

Little Mona emailed me after we left the burial and inquired, “Where is the baby?” As she holds her daughter and sobs, Eman says, “Every time she asks where her little brother went, she kills me.”

Eman wonders what crime her baby and other young people his age committed, and why they deserve what she calls the “cruel” fate of a life lived in tents.

“Our children have perished one after another through bombing, snipers, hunger, and cold. My child is not the first, and neither will he.

Not a life, really.

The director general of the Gazan government’s health agency, Munir al-Bursh, has warned of more premature deaths among children, the elderly, and the sick as a result of the soaring temperatures inside displacement tents that have been soaked in rain.

According to Al-Bursh, tents are a breeding ground for the spread of respiratory illnesses among those who are displaced, and patients are unable to receive any medical care due to moisture and standing water inside.

In Gaza, little reconstruction has occurred despite the ceasefire’s onset in October, where Israeli bombing and systematic demolition have destroyed the majority of residential structures.

Israel has also continued to attack Gaza frequently, and there are no indications that it will allow real reconstruction to begin, at least temporarily.

That implies that Mohammed’s circumstances are likely to persist.

And Eman is terrified of losing her 2-year-old daughter because of the tragic loss of her baby.

I cover her with everything I have, cover her, and never go to sleep. I keep an eye on her constantly. She claims that her heart is burning.

Eman is caught between trying to comfort herself and clinging to patience as to how long the situation there will continue to be so dire.

This is not a life, they say. Unfortunately, she claims that the reality appears to be going on for ten more years.

Butterfield eyes summer and winter Paralympic gold

Media PA

After being chosen to compete in the wheelchair curling team for the March 2026 Games, Jo Butterfield will attempt to become the first British athlete to win gold at both the summer and winter paralympics.

Before switching from para-athletics to curling in 2023, the 46-year-old won club throw gold at Rio 2016.

She won the same year’s mixed team world championships, and she will compete alongside Jason Kean in the new mixed doubles competition the following year after a brief break from the ice to recover from cancer.

Since becoming a Paralympian, Butterfield, who was born in Yorkshire but now represents Scotland, has carried the dream of pushing boundaries and seeing what is possible.

It’s a challenge I’m fully committed to embracing and a goal I set myself when I switched to wheelchair curling in 2023.

The seven-strong team includes four English-born athletes, and Butterfield and Kean will be the first non-Scotland-based British athletes to compete in a curling Paralympics.

Along with Kean, Stewart Aspey and Stewart Pimblett represented England at the World Wheelchair Curling Championships this year along with Scots Hugh Nibloe, Austin McKenzie, and Graeme Stewart in the team event.

Milano Cortina is Nibloe’s third Games appearance, making him the only other member of the squad to have previously competed at a Winter Paralympics.

The 43-year-old from Stranraer is determined to take home a podium at the Paralympics after previously claiming world silver and bronze.

Target red-hot Ekitike and Semenyo – FPL team of the week

BBB Sport
  • 2 Comments

Gameweeks begin on December 26, December 30, January 3 and January 6, with gameweeks beginning on December 26 and December 30. This is the final FPL week before fixture mayhem begins.

Expect rotation, random benchings, and some injury chaos because there is a lot of football to be played in a short amount of time.

Well done, you’ll need them over the next three weeks if you didn’t use up all of your five free Afcon transfers last week!

As if you were playing a Free Hit, the team of the week is chosen based on the current FPL prices to fit within a £100m budget.

What was the team’s performance last week?

Another high-scoring week was capped off by strong performances from Robin Roefs (nine), Bukayo Saka (22 points), Bruno Fernandes (13), Hugo Ekitike (13), and Bruno Fernandes (13).

Protector and defense

Leeds-based Lucas Perri, £4.5 million, Crystal Palace (h)

Given that there isn’t much money to spend on a keeper this week, I’m betting on Leeds keeping a clean sheet against a Palace side that has lost Daniel Munoz and Ismaila Sarr, two of their key creative players.

Jean-Phillipe Mateta, the Palace’s top scorer, has also only one goal in six games.

Bournemouth Marcos Senesi, £4.9 million – Burnley (h)

Senesi earned defensive contribution points (defcon) for the 12th time in 15 games despite conceding four goals against Manchester United.

He gives you a high floor for a game where it’s obvious that you could also get a clean sheet.

Brighton, £4.6 million – Sunderland (h) Jan Paul van Hecke

In seven of his previous ten games (three goals, three clean sheets, one assist, and a defcon performance), Van Hecke has returned at least four points.

With only four goals scored on the road, Sunderland return to the Amex.

Brentford‘s Nathan Collins, £4.9 million – Wolves (a)

Brentford’s defense has scored the most goals conceded (xGC), which is higher than that of Liverpool and better than that of Chelsea and Aston Villa, over the past ten games.

Midfield

Bruno FernandesGetty Images
Manchester City’s Phil Foden, £8.8 million signing, West Ham (h)

Foden has become a must-have player by putting on 13.75 points per game in his previous four games.

West Ham’s home team is almost as good as it gets, winning just five games in a row.

You can always take a benching at random Pep Roulette but you don’t want to pick Foden.

Bournemouth‘s Antoine Semenyo, £7.5 million – Burnley (h)

This season, Burnley have conceded at least twice in eight games while playing away, totaling 23 goals.

Semenyo has returned to the top of the goalscoring charts after two and a half months since scoring for Manchester United.

If you still own him, he might still be a sell, but this week is a fantastic match-up.

Bournemouth‘s Marcus Tavernier, £5.5 million – Burnley (h)

Although Tavernier was Bournemouth’s star man in their eight-goal thriller against Manchester United on Monday, his potential has been demonstrated by his fundamental data for some time.

Tavernier is Bournemouth’s top performer, but Semenyo is not far behind.

He has the second-most shots, xG, goals, and big chances, surpassing any other Bournemouth midfielder who has created 22 chances.

He’s a fantastic budget option, making up for Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Granit Xhaka, at £5.5 million.

Manchester United‘s Bruno Fernandes, $ 9.3 million, Aston Villa (a)

Fernandes ranks among the top midfielders in almost every other creative stat, making him unavoidable even in a difficult match like Villa away from Villa.

Strikers

Igor Thiago, Brentford, £7.2m – Wolves (a)

Despite having only five points in his previous three games, Thiago has struggled to score.

Don’t let anyone think Wolves can defend themselves after almost taking an advantage of Arsenal.

You’d anticipate Brentford to win at Molineux after conceding 21 goals in eight home games.

Manchester City‘s Erling Haaland (captain) and West Ham‘s (h) salary of $15 million

Captaincy is currently returning to Haaland, and it might stay there.

Even if you went against him last week with Bruno Fernandes or Bukayo Saka, you still won’t regret it, but this gameweek presents an even greater risk.

Liverpool‘s £8.6 million acquisition of Tottenham (a) Hugo Ekitike

Given Tottenham’s recent performances, Ekitike’s form is unremarkable, and all of a sudden, this seems like a great match for him given his current form.

In his previous two games, the Frenchman has scored four goals, and Liverpool is gradually improving.

Conway & Latham share 323-run opening stand for NZ

  • 16 Comments

Mount Maunganui, day one of the third test, is the fifth test.

New Zealand 334-1: Conway 178*, Latham 137

West Indies: Still playing

As New Zealand won the first day of their third Test series victory over West Indies, Devon Conway and Tom Latham shared New Zealand’s second-highest opening partnership in the game.

The openers scored 323 for the first wicket, bettering only Glenn Turner and Terry Jarvis’ 387-run innings in Georgetown against West Indies in 1972.

Conway finished with a 178-run lead, while Latham, the team’s captain, recorded 137 as New Zealand came out on top 334-1.

The partnership, which involved 86.4 overs, is New Zealand’s eighth-highest opening stand of 300 for any wicket. It is also the joint 12th highest opening stand in men’s test cricket.

Martin Crowe and Andrew Jones set a record partnership for New Zealand when they added 467 for the third wicket in Wellington in 1991 when Sri Lanka lost to Sri Lanka.

Conway recorded his sixth Test century while facing 279 balls and hitting 25 fours.

Latham, who had earlier won the toss, was caught by a diving Roston Chase at first slip off Kemar Roach after being dropped by wicketkeeper Tevin Imlach on 104.

Latham now has 15 Test scores and has faced 246 balls, 15 fours, and sixes.

The best experience I’ve had. Conway remarked, “It was a good time out there.”

This morning, we discussed how to bat big, bat well, and give bowlers the chance to bowl in the fourth inning.

It was a challenging morning session, particularly for me. In the first hour, I engaged in self-feir. They did a fantastic job.

The ball softer and the wicket sped up after lunch, which gave me and Tom some good scoring opportunities.
