Children in Gaza have endured so much.
Today marks 3 years since the October 2023 attacks in Israel and the ensuing escalation of war, which has devastated lives across Gaza, the West Bank and Israel, and left children still living through a humanitarian catastrophe.
Despite the welcome announcement of the ceasefire agreement a year ago, UNICEF reported in August that at least 300 children in Gaza had been killed in the 300 days following the announcement of the ceasefire agreement in October 2025, an average of one child every day.
Repeated violations of the ceasefire, the collapse of essential services and the severe restrictions on movement of relief supplies and humanitarian workers have left most of the people in Gaza struggling to survive, with children paying the highest price.
We demand all parties uphold International Humanitarian Law, protect civilians and civilian infrastructure, and ensure that children are never caught in the crossfire of conflict.
