More children have now been killed in Gaza in the last three weeks than the total killed in conflicts around the world in every year since 2019, the non-governmental organization Save the Children have detailed.
Figures released by the NGO on Sunday, referencing Palestinian health authorities, show that at least 3,324 children have been killed in Gaza since October 07, while 36 have died in the West Bank.
According to reports from the UN Secretary-General on children and armed conflict, a total of 2,985 children were killed across 24 countries in 2022, 2,515 in 2021, and 2,674 in 2020 across 22 countries, Save the Children said.
It is claimed a further 1,000 children have been reported missing in Gaza and may be under the rubble arising from fierce Israeli bombardment. Children make up more than 40 percent of the more than 8,000 people confirmed to have been killed in Gaza. And more than 6,000 children have been injured in Gaza since the war began.
Which country will step forward to defend and protect Palestinian innocents from the murderous Israelis?
