Gaza mother searches for family 'killed' in Israeli strike

Israel continues to violate international laws by targeting civilians including women and children in the Gaza war.

Recently, a video has been widely shared on social media showing a mother in Gaza panicking while looking for her children and husband who were reportedly killed in an Israeli strike while taking refuge in a UNRWA school housing displaced families.

In the heart-wrenching video, a woman is seen crying and shouting while searching for her family members for the rubbles 

The Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) on Friday in its report confirmed that nearly 70 per cent of verified deaths were of women and children.

The Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) in its report said having verified 8,119 of the more than 34,500 people reportedly killed during the first six months of Israel’s war in Gaza, finding that a high proportion were women and children – the youngest just one day old.

The report warned that “widespread or systematic” attacks on civilians could amount to “crimes against humanity”.
