Reem Alnuweiri, a Vancouver coordinator for the Palestinian Refugee Support
Network, said that much of her family remains in Gaza. As an example of the
dire conditions in the territory, Alnuweiri told the Straight that
breast-feeding has become impossible in many areas. "A couple of my cousins
were complaining that they literally do not know how to feed their babies,"
she explained. "There is no water or juice that they can get their hands on
[to produce breast milk]."

 

(that's the entire reference to breastfeeding and infant feeding)
