Currently, the Gaza Strip is the most dangerous place in the world for children, said the head of the UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF) Catherine Russell. Her words are quoted by RIA Novosti.
On the morning of December 1, the Israeli military accused the Palestinian Hamas movement of violating the pause in hostilities, after which they resumed attacks on the Gaza Strip. At the same time, the pause in hostilities also ended on December 1 at 7.00 (8.00 Moscow time), despite preliminary information, it was not officially extended.
Catherine Russell noted that winter is approaching, which aggravates the situation, and called on all parties to the conflict to protect the lives and well-being of all children, regardless of where they are.
“No more children should die in this conflict,” she said.
Earlier in November, the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child reported that more than 4.6 thousand children were killed in five weeks.
