Gaza: Nearly 600 Palestinian children have been killed in Israeli attacks since the ceasefire was broken on March 18, according to the Health Ministry in Gaza.
The latest figures confirm that 2,308 people have lost their lives and at least 5,973 others have been wounded in ongoing Israeli military operations during this period. The violence marks a devastating escalation in the already dire humanitarian situation in the region.
The Palestinian Centre for Human Rights revealed that out of those killed, 595 were children and 308 were women—highlighting the high toll on civilians, especially the most vulnerable. These attacks have intensified since the ceasefire collapsed, bringing further destruction to densely populated civilian areas across Gaza.
The violence has compounded the suffering of the 2.3 million people living under siege, where hospitals are collapsing under pressure, and aid has been severely restricted. With no sign of a renewed ceasefire, the death toll is expected to rise, further straining the region’s already overwhelmed medical and humanitarian infrastructure.
International bodies and human rights organizations have condemned the targeting of civilian populations, demanding urgent measures to protect children and families trapped in the conflict. The global community watches as the tragedy in Gaza deepens with each passing day.
