UNICEF has said that the Israeli occupation killed around 500 Palestinian children during the war on the Gaza Strip and wounded around 3,000 others.
Chief of UNICEF's Gaza Field Office Pernille Ironside said that 469 children were killed. The number is expected to rise.
She described the effects and damage of the Israeli war on the Palestinian children as "bad," noting that nine children were killed in the last 48 hours.
The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced a higher number. They said that 560 children were killed and 11,000 wounded.
Meanwhile, three children were killed on Thursday in Al-Nafaq Street in the north-east of the Gaza Strip. Several international organisations said that targeting children during the war mounts to war crimes and perpetrators must be held account for them.
UNICEF stressed that children in Gaza are experiencing difficult living conditions. They make up around half of Gaza's population, 1.8million. UNICEF said that the Israeli occupation has destroyed the houses of more than 50,000 children.
Those folks can “stuff it.”
And I’ll bet there are still conservatives and Jews who collect money for UNICEF.
Nonsense. Where do they get these figures? They must have been there to arrive at such accurate numbers.
Hamas killed those children by putting htem in harm’s way.
“UNICEF: Israel killed 500 children in Gaza”
That’s an incomplete headline.
It should say...
“UNICEF: Israel killed 500 children in Gaza used human shields”
Ooops!
It should say...
UNICEF: Israel killed 500 children in Gaza used as human shields
Simple, just keep a tally of every death claimed by Hamas. The Jews have an accurate count. It is about 10. Most of the “children” killed were terrorists.
Pernille Ironside (Columbia Law School graduate)
“occupation”?
More like child hostages put in place by Hamas
after launching Obama-UN-Qatar-Turkey-Lerner-Kerry rockets
to terrorize and murder.
The UN is complicit with all the deaths,
and before and during the fact.
Hamas allowed them to be murdered by Hamas as cannon fodder only to gain International Sympathy. I for one am not sad for the loss of these children. As they were sacrificed for the false God. Just like in old Testament times the children were sacrificed for a false God. Islam is not Godly it is of the devil.
Hey UNICEF, how many of those kids were used by Hamas as human shields..or killed by Hamas and then blamed the deaths on Israel..The rocket that killed the 4 year old Israeli boy a few days ago was shot from a UN school..so UNICEF, kiss my a@@ OK
They should also stop forcing families back in their homes at gunpoint.
It is a hard life when your parents are terrorists or terrorist sympathizers.
As someone once said, the Palestinians will not want peace as long as they hate the Israelis more than they love their children.
Should say "UNICEF: Israel killed 500 children in Gaza used by Hamas as human shields
YUP.
And...
There Will Be No Peace Until There Is No Islam.
HAMAS killed 500 children in Gaza.
Remember the two kids hung up on a fence spike by their clothes?
