«Breaking News» Litter of lion cubs freeze to death two hours after they were born at Gaza Strip zoo

A litter of four lion cubs froze to death just hours after being born at a dilapidated zoo in Gaza.  

Fathi Jumaa, the owner of the zoo, said he covered the cage of the tiny cubs with blankets ahead of a winter storm, but found them dead the next morning at the small zoo in the southern Gaza Strip city of Rafah.

He said that two lions died almost immediately so he took another two home with him to care for them but they died upon returning to the zoo.

Most of the animals in the zoo were smuggled into Gaza from Egypt via underground tunnels a few years ago, before the Egyptian military destroyed the tunnels running beneath the border.

The wintry weather sweeping the region has made it especially hard for animals that lack proper care.

Jumaa said that the weather, the 'coldest winter for years' according to residents, is partly to blame for the death of the cubs, as well as a long standing Israeli blockade. 

'We could not secure the necessary food supplements, medicines and antibiotics to save the lives of the cubs. We do not have enough money and the blockade is exacerbating the situation,' the zoo manager told Middle East Eye.

In a previous interview, the owners of the zoo revealed that these  taxidermied animals had died because they could not afford to feed them

He added that because of the 12-year blockade, his zoo have been unable to obtain heating systems or plastic rain protection.

He added that the cubs' mother is also at risk now, because of the complimented political and climate mixture. 

'We may also lose the lioness, which recently gave birth and whose poor health has been worsening over the past few days,' he said. 

In 2016, animals - including a Bengal tiger - were evacuated from the 'world's worst zoo' in the south of the Gaza strip because they were dying from 'stress, disease, and starvation', according to their owner.

International animal care groups have carried out several evacuation missions in recent years to relocate animals and birds in poor condition to sanctuaries outside Gaza.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
