0 400

The UNICEF says at least 940 children has been reported missing in Gaza, adding infant dehydration is a growing threat with only five percent of normal water output.

“Gaza has become a graveyard of children,” UNICEF Spokesperson James Elder told a UN press briefing in Geneva.

About 3,500 children have beenkilled in the war so far, Gaza’s Health Ministry said.

Elder reiterated the UN Children Agency’s call for an immediate ceasefire and humanitarian access to supplies for the enclave.

Children in Gaza are dying not only from Israeli air strikes, but also because of a lack of medical care, he said.
