Since Israel resumed its ruthless military offensive in Gaza on March 18, an average of 100 Palestinian children have been killed every day, according to UNICEF.
Philippe Lazzarini, the head of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), described Gaza as “no land for children” and renewed calls for an immediate ceasefire.
The truce had given children a brief chance to reclaim their childhood without the constant threat of bombardment. But with its collapse, they were once again thrust into grave danger, said Lazzarini.
Israel has continued its relentless assault on Gaza, which had persisted until December, when a fragile ceasefire took effect in January. However, the truce was severely violated by Israel on March 18.

Currently, Israel has displaced thousands of Palestinians, forcing them to leave refugee camps on foot. Many struggle to carry their belongings, while children and the elderly endure the physical toll of walking long distances.
Over 1,250 Palestinians have been killed since Israel violated the Gaza ceasefire on Tuesday, with casualties rising amid escalating airstrikes and ground assaults.
The Gaza Ministry of Health stated that at least 50,523 Palestinians have been killed and 114,638 injured in Israeli attacks since October 7, 2023.
