The UN agency for Palestinian refugees, Unrwa, said that over 625,000 children in Gaza have been out of school for more than eight months due to Israel's war on the enclave.
It adds that 300,000 of them were Unrwa students prior to the war.
"Play and learning activities provided by Unrwa teams are critical in preparing children to get back to school and restore their right to education," the agency said on X.
