The UN in its report stated that around 28 children are killed daily in Gaza due to the conflict and restricted humanitarian aid.

"Death by bombardments. Death by malnutrition and starvation. Death by lack of aid and vital services. In Gaza, an average of 28 children a day - the size of a classroom - have been killed. Gaza's children need food, water, medicine and protection. More than anything, they need a ceasefire, NOW," the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF) said on X.
