Sila al-Najmeh was less than three weeks old when her mother Nariman realised she wasn't moving.

She is one of six newborns who have died from hypothermia within a two-week period in Gaza .

Medics say Gaza 's medics have observed an increase in the number of premature births during the war.

Babies have an underdeveloped mechanism for maintaining their own body temperature.

"If we don't die from the war, we're dying from the cold," says Nariman Nariman .

"These preventable deaths lay bare the desperate and deteriorating conditions facing families and children across Gaza ," says Unicef .

"With temperatures expected to drop further in the coming days , it is tragically foreseeable that more children's lives will be lost to the inhumane conditions they are enduring," says Beigbeder .
