Director of the Accountability Program at Defense for Children International, Ayed Abu Qutaish, said that the Israeli occupation authorities have killed 332 children in the West Bank and Gaza since the beginning of the aggression against the Gaza Strip last Saturday.

He added: Since the beginning of the aggression on the Gaza Strip, the occupation has been targeting civilians, and according to the Ministry of Health, as of yesterday, Wednesday, 326 children were martyred in the southern governorates, and 6 children in the northern governorates, and the number of martyrs of children and women is unprecedented.

He pointed out that the global movement prepares daily reports that reflect the crimes of the Israeli occupation, including displacement, demolition of residential neighborhoods, and cutting off water, electricity, and communications, in addition to the racist statements of Israeli officials.

Abu Qutaish stressed that the absence of accountability and impunity constitute a green light for the occupation to continue its crimes and the killing of Palestinian children.

He pointed out that the international community gave the green light for the Israeli military operation in Gaza, warning of the impact of the positions of some countries in increasing the number of martyrs of children and women.

The Ministry of Health had announced that 60% of the martyrs in the ongoing aggression against our people for the sixth day in a row were women and children.
