🚨Two-year-old Nidal Abu Rabie died in central Gaza after Israeli authorities prevented him from traveling abroad for urgent treatment for severe liver and spleen enlargement. The toddler had been on the medical transfer list for more than 14 months and received an official referral nine months ago, but Israel’s closure of Rafah blocked his exit.
