The Ministry of Health in Gaza revealed that "Israel" has killed over 10,000 children since October 7. Save the Children confirmed the figures and added that countless more are missing, presumed dead, and buried beneath the rubble. 

“Children in Gaza surviving the violence are enduring unspeakable horrors, including life-changing injuries, burns, disease, inadequate medical care, and losing their parents and other loved ones. They have been forced to flee violence, often repeatedly, with no safe place to go and face the terror of an uncertain future,” the statement by Save the Children said.

According to International Humanitarian Law, civilian infrastructures must always be protected in conflict.

However, in every conflict, children are the ones who always pay the highest price.

Save the Children’s Country Director for the occupied Palestinian territory, Jason Lee, shared the horrifying statistics of "Israel" killing 100 children per day, slamming the occupation and saying, "There can never be any justification for killing children. The situation in Gaza is monstrous and a blight on our common humanity.”

“For nearly 100 days, children have been paying the price for a conflict they have no part in. They are terrified, hurt, maimed, displaced. One percent of the child population of Gaza has already been killed by Israeli bombardments and ground operations. Others risk being killed by starvation and disease with famine coming ever closer. For children who have survived, the mental harm inflicted and the utter devastation of infrastructure including homes, schools, and hospitals has decimated their futures,” he added.

Earlier this week, Lee revealed that more than 10 children per day, on average, had lost one or both of their legs in Gaza since "Israel" launched an all-out aggression on the besieged territory early in October.

In a statement on Sunday, Lee explained the dire humanitarian situation across Gaza, further warning that the killing and maiming of children constitute grave violations of children’s rights.

Emphasizing that children are physically more fragile and thus more prone to life-changing injuries, Lee said, "The suffering of children in this conflict is unimaginable and even more so because it is unnecessary and completely avoidable."

He also urged that "perpetrators must be held to account" because such suffering of children constitutes a "grave violation" worthy of condemnation.
