Up to 21, 000 children missing in Gaza since Israel launched war: Aid group
Up to 21,000 children are unaccounted for since Israel launched the war on Gaza on October 7, according to Save the Children.
More than 37,000 Palestinians in Gaza have been killed by Israel since October.
Almost half of them are children.
Israel’s abuses saw it added to the UN’s global blacklist of countries that harm children.
Save the Children, in a new statement, said 21,000 children are missing, some separated from their familes, some buried under the rubble, their fate unknown. The advocacy group calls for a ceasefire to look for the missing children.
