The recent escalation in Gaza has resulted in the tragic loss of over 3,195 children's lives in just three weeks, surpassing the total number of children killed in conflict zones worldwide since 2019. This alarming figure, representing more than 40% of total fatalities in Gaza, underscores the urgent need for immediate action. The expanded ground operations and ongoing violence are expected to increase child casualties. Furthermore, the siege's impact, including electricity cuts and shortages of fuel and medicine, exacerbates the risk of children dying from injuries. It is crucial to halt funding that supports these operations and to advocate for an immediate ceasefire. The protection of children's lives must be prioritized above all else.
