The United Nations Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF) reported that Israeli occupation attacks in Lebanon on Sunday resulted in the deaths of an additional 7 children, bringing the total number of child casualties to over 200. This comes amid the ongoing Israeli aggression against Lebanon.

The organization emphasized that "Under international humanitarian law, children must never be targets," and stressed that protecting them is a legal obligation.

UNICEF also stated that a ceasefire is "imperative to end this devastating violence."
