Most of those killed in Gaza are women and children as Israel targeting residential homes

We are talking about attacks that only killed women and children. And this has been recorded by the UN. Now, we are here in Al-Aqsa Hospital and we observe the ambulances that come every single day and most of those who are targeted, injured or killed, are women and children. If we go inside the hospital right now, you are going to see who are the Palestinians that are injured and most of them are very young children and women.

Due to the lack of medical supplies, most of these Palestinian children and women are witnessing a very deteriorating situation. It’s not only that. It’s because the Israeli forces are only targeting residential homes and makeshift tents where people are actually seeking shelter and refuge.

This has been happening since the war started on the Gaza Strip where schools, UNRWA shelters, public places have been targeted.

At least 500 Palestinian children killed since Israel broke ceasefire agreement in March

According to Mahmoud Basal, the Gaza Civil Defence spokesperson, since the war resumed on March 18, at least 500 children have been killed.

Earlier this morning, a newborn baby called Sham was targeted along with her family. She was in a very critical condition where her arm was amputated and she died a couple of hours later because her injury was very critical and doctors were unable to help her situation.

It’s not only the continuous air strikes, it’s the mass evacuation orders. Earlier today, two evacuation orders have been issued. The first was in Shujayea. The second one was in Khan Younis. Palestinians do not know where to go.



Killing, injuring of Palestinians by Israeli soldiers and settlers continues in the occupied territory: UN

Israeli forces killed nine Palestinians, including two children, and injured at least another 130 people in the occupied West Bank between March 25 and April 7, the latest UN situation report on the occupied territory reveals.

According to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), a 10th victim of the Israeli military was shot and killed on April 8 – a Palestinian woman who Israeli soldiers alleged had thrown stones. The UN report also reveals that 34 children were among the 130 injured by the Israeli military during the reporting period up to April 7.

On top of the military violence, Israeli settlers carried out 44 attacks on Palestinians that resulted in the injury of 25, including five children, and property damage across 35 communities.

Israeli authorities also demolished 105 Palestinian-owned structures across the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem during the same period, leaving 122 Palestinians displaced, including 64 children.

More than 200 Palestinians were also affected as the demolitions targeted livelihood structures, as well as sanitation facilities and family homes.
