UNICEF: Israel kills 27 children in Gaza every day
The Zionist regime’s army has been martyring 27 children daily in the Gaza Strip since the war started in October 2023, UNICEF said on Friday.
UNICEF spokesman Khadem Khalaf told Al Jazeera satellite channel that nothing justifies Zionist regime’s excessive killing of civilians in Gaza.
Khalaf added that over 5,000 children had been diagnosed with malnutrition in the Gaza Strip in last May alone.
According to recent official statistics published by Gaza’s Government Media Office (GMO), UNICEF, and the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), more than 18,000 children have been martyred by the Zionist regime’s army since the genocidal war on Gaza started.
Last month, 66 have died of malnutrition as the Zionist occupation regime persists in besieging Gaza and preventing the entry of vital supplies, including baby formula.
