Nearly one million children displaced in Gaza: UNICEF
Jerusalem, Undefined – AFP
The UN children’s agency, UNICEF, has said nearly one million children have been displaced in Gaza because of Israeli attacks.
“They are now being pushed further and further south into tiny, overcrowded areas without water, food or protection,” said Adele Khodr of UNICEF.
“The restrictions and challenges being placed on the delivery of lifesaving aid… are another death sentence for children.”
Around half of those killed in Gaza by Israel are children, according to the enclave’s health ministry.
