Among all of the atrocities of war, it’s the broken and bloodied children that devastate doctors working in Gaza.
“Nowhere is safe.”The trauma is compounded because Gazan health care workers’ homes and families have been directly affected by the ongoing conflict.
Saieh reported that more than 14,000 Palestinian children have been killed since October and that more than 20,000 are missing.
“This includes children who have been separated from their families and are unaccompanied, children who are trapped under the rubble and presumed dead, children who have been buried in unmarked mass graves,” she said.
What's more, “a staggering number of children in Gaza are losing their limbs and facing life-altering injuries due to the use of explosive weapons,” Saieh said.
