Protecting Gaza’s Children

Thousands of Palestinian children have died since Israel invaded Gaza last month, and many more face dire conditions, as the health-care system has collapsed and life-threatening hunger has become widespread. Governments and international organizations must cooperate to support these young people at home and abroad.

KUALA LUMPUR – In just over 50 days, some 20,000 civilians in Gaza have been injured, while more than 8,000 have been killed, according to Palestinian officials. A majority of the dead – at least 5,500 – are children, which amounts to one Palestinian child killed every ten minutes, while an additional 1,800 children are missing, and presumed dead, under the rubble.
