At least 11,355 children have been killed in Gaza since Israel launched its military campaign on October 7, according to Palestinian health authorities.
A UN committee has accused Israel of “severe” breaches of a global treaty protecting children’s rights, saying its military actions in Gaza had a “catastrophic” impact on them and are among the worst violations in recent history.
“The outrageous death of children is almost historically unique. This is an extremely dark place in history,” Bragi Gudbrandsson, Vice Chair of the Committee, told reporters on Thursday.
“I don’t think we have seen before, a violation that is so massive, as we’ve seen in Gaza. These are extremely grave violations that we do not often see,” he said.
