Gaza Herald – Gaza’s Health Ministry reported that at least 30 percent of Palestinians killed in Israel’s assault on Gaza have been children. Since October 2023, that translates to an average of 28 children killed every single day.
The figures highlight the staggering toll on Gaza’s youngest and most vulnerable, underscoring what officials and rights groups describe as the deliberate targeting of civilians in densely populated areas.
Humanitarian organizations have repeatedly warned that the scale of child casualties in Gaza is unprecedented in modern conflicts, calling the numbers “a stain on humanity’s conscience.”
