Gaza “has become a graveyard for children,” #UNICEF says
December 12, 2024 by Nora Barrows-Friedman
The following is from the news roundup during the 11 December livestream. Watch the entire episode here.
Israel’s campaign of systematic slaughter, forced displacement, destruction and starvation in north Gaza is now in its tenth week, while airstrikes and massacres are being carried out across all areas of the coastal enclave.
Palestinians in north Gaza endured more rounds of forced displacement this past week, as Israeli forces ordered approximately 5,500 people sheltering in schools in Beit Lahiya to go to Gaza City.

"Mahmoud Alsaqqa, who is #Oxfam’s food security and livelihood lead in Gaza, warned that some Palestinians are 'starving to death' from hunger in northern Gaza and more people will die in the coming days.
"Aid agencies say about 96 percent of Gaza’s population is facing high levels of food shortages. According to #UNICEF, nine out of 10 children lack the nutrition they need for growth and development. At least 37 children have died of #malnutrition or #dehydration in a year of war."

Over 300,000 children have been displaced by the ongoing violence in #Lebanon, according to Government reports. Over the last week, at least 80 children have reportedly been killed in attacks, while hundreds more have been injured.
#UNICEF and partners are delivering drinking water, medical supplies, mattresses and blankets, and hygiene, dignity and baby kits. We are providing health and nutrition, child protection and psychosocial support services for children.
UNICEF continues to call for an urgent cessation of hostilities and for the protection of children and civilian infrastructure.

PS. It is not "violence" it is Israeli criminal attacks.
#UNICEF has estimated that at least 4,000 children in Gaza are missing, 17,000 are unaccompanied or separated from their parents, and 700,000 have been forcibly displaced several times since the start of the war.
“It’s been a completely catastrophic humanitarian crisis for children over the last 10 months. They’ve seen and been through everything that a child should not have to go through at that age, or any age for that matter, in terms of scale of conflict, in terms of loss of their homes, of the infrastructure that is so vital for their daily lives and livelihoods.”
UNICEF spokesperson Ricardo Pires

According to the #RedCrescent, Israel killed over 15,000 #children in Gaza during the ongoing #genocide.
#UNICEF had stated that more children were killed in Gaza over 6 months than in all world conflicts in 4 years.

I spent time with people who had what in Iran we used to call "shell shock", adult soldiers who had nerve and internal injuries because of explosions close to them, not to mention the psychological impact of living through such nightmare. Can't imagine how it is for children, as young as 4 years old to have lived through such horror, plus the loss of the parents, siblings and in a lot of times, the entire family.
War is hell, for everyone, specially civilians, but for innocent children who are caught in the middle of something they had no role in creating or ability to change is so much worse. Reading some of the comments on FB page of Unicef on this post made me really sick.
I understand people having strong feeling about people in other countries, even other religions and race (even thought I hate it), but making fun of suffering of children, no matter who they are is just something I do not understand. One must be really evil to think that suffering of an innocent 4 year old is anything but tragic and unacceptable. But, sadly, we are in the new world of post 9/11, trumpism and post october 7, inhumanity and hate is no longer hidden or condemned, it is openly said and shared with pride and lots of likes and support from similar people who lack humanity and empathy.

UNICEF: Last week saw the bombing of three sites for internally displaced people in Goma, North Kivu, in eastern DR #Congo.
Dozens of people were injured or killed, mainly women and children.
Ongoing violence in the country is putting millions of children at risk.
#UNICEF and #UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency condemn the bombings and will continue our work on the ground to provide impacted families with urgent support.
#UNICEF estimates that at least 17,000 #children in Gaza are unaccompanied or separated from their families due to the Israeli #genocide.
Adam Abu Nassar is one of thousands of orphaned children in Gaza, who face a dark future.

“In the three months between my visits, every horrific number rose dramatically. Gaza has shattered humanity's records for its darkest chapters. Humanity must now urgently write a different chapter.”

380,000 children escaping war in #Sudan have been forced to seek refuge in neighbouring eastern #Chad.
Among other challenges, they are also vulnerable to deadly diseases, often caused by the lack of safe water and basic hygiene.
#UNICEF is providing clean water and health services to families. However, what children urgently need is peace.
The Global Education Cluster, jointly led by #UNICEF and Save the Children, issued a report detailing the Israeli army's demolition of schools in #Gaza.
The data shows that more than 70% of Gaza's #schools have been destroyed or targeted by Israel, rendering it unfeasible for children to resume education in the near future.
