Unrwa chief: 100 children killed or injured daily in Gaza
Unrwa chief Phillipe Lazzarini has said, citing a report by UNICEF, that at least 100 children have been killed in Israeli attacks daily since strikes resumed on 18 March.
"Young lives cut short in a war not of children’s making," Lazzarini said in a post on X, adding that since the war began a year and a half ago, 15,000 children have been killed in Israeli attacks.
"The ceasefire at the beginning of the year gave Gaza’s children a chance to survive & be children. The resumption of the war is again robbing them of their childhood. The war has turned Gaza into a “no land” for children," he said.
Harrowing.
