Data shows that a child is killed every 15 minutes.

Israel-Hamas

On October 7 last year, more than 1,500 people were killed in an attack by Hamas soldiers on Israel.

In response to this, Israel is attacking Gaza by all means, including air and ground. Subsequently, Iran plans to retaliate against Israel for its attack in Syria.

Meanwhile, India’s Ministry of External Affairs has advised Indians to avoid traveling to Israel and Iran until further notice. Also, Indians there have been advised to contact Indian embassies immediately.

Destabilized Gaza

In this context, in the last 6 months of conflict in Gaza, a child loses its life every 15 minutes, the World Children’s Organization expressed anguish. The head of its organization, Daniela Fatarella, said:

It tells us that this war is the deadliest and most destructive in recent history. An estimated 26,000 children have been killed or injured in the conflict over the past six months. Those who survived lost their homes, their loved ones, the schools they attended, their daily lives, and are today starving.

Such a dire situation is unacceptable. The world must act now to ensure an immediate and definitive ceasefire and unrestricted humanitarian access.

This child welfare organization has been providing essential services and support to Palestinian children since 1953.
