On this World Children's Day, Israel’s relentless attacks on Palestine’s Gaza continue to kill five children per hour, while an average of seven babies are born each day amidst Israel’s daily bombings.
Since October 7, at least 4,710 children have been killed by Israeli air strikes on Gaza, which has come to be described as “a graveyard for children” by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres.
Countless others are in life-threatening situations due to a scarcity of resources caused by Israel’s blockade and grave injuries sustained in Israel’s ongoing bombardments.
The number of children killed in Gaza in just six weeks since October 7 has surpassed the combined annual death toll of children killed worldwide in conflicts between the years 2020 and 2022, according to UK-based NGO Save the Children.
World Children's Day, initially celebrated in 1954 as Universal Children's Day, is now observed annually on November 20 and aims “to promote international togetherness and awareness among children worldwide” and to improve children's welfare.
This date marks the anniversary of the Declaration of the Rights of the Child by the UN General Assembly in 1959 and the adoption of the Convention on the Rights of the Child 30 years later.
