“One child gets killed every hour. These are not numbers. These are lives cut short,” the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) has said in a statement, according to Anadolu.

“Killing children cannot be justified. Those who survive are scarred physically and emotionally.”

Deprived of learning, Palestinian boys and girls in Gaza sift through the rubble, UNRWA said.

“The clock is ticking for these children. They are losing their lives, their futures and mostly their hope.”
