The United Nations children’s agency reported on Friday that since the start of the ceasefire in Gaza, at least 67 children had died in conflict-related incidents. Numerous other people have been hurt. Unicef spokesperson Ricardo Pires told reporters in Geneva that since the truce went into place, nearly two children had died every day on average.
A baby girl and her parents perished in an air strike in eastern Khan Younis in southern Gaza, according to a statement released by Unicef on Thursday. According to Unicef, airstrikes in Gaza City and the south killed seven children on Wednesday.
Nearly six weeks into a precarious Israel-Hamas ceasefire, Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) reported on Friday that its medical teams in Gaza had treated Palestinian women and children this week for injuries from Israeli gunfire and bombings.
According to MSF, medical care was given in clinics and hospitals in Rafah in the south and Gaza City in the north. According to MSF, which cited a nurse in Gaza, a nine-year-old girl was treated on Wednesday at a hospital in Gaza City for a facial injury sustained by shooting from an Israeli drone. When Reuters contacted the Israeli military for comment on this item, they did not immediately respond. It has previously claimed that it does not deliberately target civilians.
