In an interview with FRANCE 24, Catherine Russell, the executive director of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) sounded the alarm about the plight of children in Gaza after more than five months of Israel's war with Hamas.
The head of UNICEF said an estimate of 13,450 children killed in the Palestinian territory since October 7, 2023 is "probably on the low end". She noted that many more children are trapped in the rubble or are wounded and often separated from their families.
