UNICEF: "UNICEF knows that 82 children have been killed in Gaza since 10 October which is a staggering pattern, and it needs to stop." These child fatalities are part of a broader toll of at least 386 people killed and 980 wounded or maimed by the IDF since the so-called ceasefire' began.
On top of continued direct IDF violence against the Palestinians since the so-called 'ceasefire', indirect violence is also taking its toll on the human beings trapped in Gaza.
UNICEF informs: "Mothers who have been left starving in Gaza are now giving birth to underweight or premature babies who die in intensive care units or struggle to survive as they endure acute malnutrition. Speaking from the shattered enclave, UNICEF Communication Manager Tess Ingram said that at least 165 children are reported to have died "painful, preventable deaths" related to malnutrition during Israel's pogrom against the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
A lesser-known scourge is acute hunger among pregnant and breastfeeding women and "the devastating domino effect" of this lack of a healthy diet on thousands of newborns.
"In Gaza's hospitals I have met several newborns who weighed less than one kilogram, their tiny chests heaving with the effort of staying alive," Ms. Ingram grimly reported."

The death toll of human beings in the Gaza Strip is now 70,654, most of them women and children, since Israel began its campaign of ethnic cleansing Gaza of Muslims on 7 Oct 2023 in order to create the state of "Judea and Samaria." The total number of wounded or maimed Palestinians is 171,095.
So disgusted by Israel's participation in Eurovision 2025, 2024 winner Nemo returned his trophy in protest. At least five countries won't participate in Eurovision 2026 if the Pariah nation is allowed to send a performer: Nemo and the World Have Had Enough of the Rogue State
Between 1951 and 2022, the hardworking American taxpayer has sent Israel $225.2 billion in US military aid (adjusted for inflation). An international arrest warrant for crimes against humanity issued by the ICC remains active for Benjamin Netanyahu. In addition, the Istanbul Public Prosecutor in Turkiye issued arrest warrants for him and 30 other suspected Israeli war criminals. An indictment is merely an allegation. Mr. Netanyahu is presumed innocent until proven guilty at an international tribunal to be held for him at a future date.
