The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) has reported that 88% of schools in the Gaza Strip have been destroyed, leaving approximately 660,000 children without access to education. This information was highlighted in a breaking news update by Cairo News Channel.

UNRWA also noted that the Israeli offensive in Gaza resulted in the deaths of over 14,500 children. Despite a ceasefire, UNRWA staff are working tirelessly to provide indispensable humanitarian relief to Palestinian refugees. However, they face significant challenges, including a new law passed by the Knesset that aims to halt the agency's operations in the occupied Palestinian territories.
