Palestinian children suffer huge toll from Israel’s unrelenting war on Gaza

Children have been among the most severely affected by the continuing Israeli war on Gaza.

Many of them have been killed, injured and orphaned and we can see that thousands of children have lost their limbs and they are suffering from severe trauma.

As the UNRWA spokesperson stated: 51 percent of Gaza’s population are children and they make up the largest proportion of those that were killed since the war began back on October 7, 2023.

For many children here in Gaza, displacement has taken a very heavy, huge toll on them.

They have been repeatedly displaced, forced to flee their homes and right now they are forced to live in overcrowded shelters and tents and on the rubble of their destroyed homes and residential buildings.

And we can see that Gaza’s healthcare system is struggling to continue providing essential care for thousands of wounded children, who are not able to receive enough medical treatment locally and they desperately, urgently need to be evacuated outside the territory.
