On Tuesday, the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), said that the Gaza Strip has become a graveyard for thousands of children.
UNICEF spokesman James Elder said: "Our gravest fears about the reported numbers of children killed becoming dozens, then hundreds, and ultimately thousands were realized in just a fortnight."
He continued: "The numbers are appalling; reportedly more than 3,450 children killed; staggeringly this rises significantly every day. Gaza has become a graveyard for thousands of children. It's a living hell for everyone else."
"There are certainly children who are dying who have been impacted by the bombardment but should have had their lives saved," Elder noted.
He further mentioned the more than one million children living in the Gaza Strip were also suffering from a lack of clean water.
