‘Nowhere is safe for children in Gaza,’ says Unicef chief

Head of the UN Children’s Fund Catherine Russell condemned on Friday the Israeli killing of children in Gaza, saying the world should be shocked by the death of 45 children in Israeli air strikes in just two days.

The killing of children in Gaza is “largely met with indifference”.

“More than 1 million children in Gaza are at risk of starvation. They are deprived of food, water and medicine,” Russell wrote in a post on X.

“Nowhere is safe for children in Gaza,” she said.
