- Description: A woman carries a gas cylinder on her head, walking near the village of Al-Alyaa 40 km north the southern city of Basra. Filled, the cylinders can weigh as much as 25 kilograms. Gas is the most common cooking fuel in the area, but depots are few and often far away..Additional Info:.Until January 2003, the situation of children and women in Iraq remains critical. One million children under five in southern and central Iraq continue to suffer from chronic malnutrition. Some 60 per cent of the entire population depend on monthly Government food rations, making them extremely vulnerable to any disruption in these supplies in the event of conflict. Widespread poverty and crumbling infrastructure, the result of years of conflict and 12 years of international economic sanctions, have affected all sectors, including massive deterioration of the country's water and sanitation systems.
