GAZA (Palestine Foundation Information Center) The head of the UN agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA) warned that without a cease-fire in Gaza, a “lost generation” is imminent.
“Children suffer first and suffer most in conflicts and wars. In Gaza it is no different. Children have gone through what no child anywhere in the world should see or undergo. Far too many were killed, far too many were injured & far too many will be scarred for life. Those who survived are in deep trauma…The war robbed the children of Gaza of their childhood,” UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini wrote on X.
He warned that “without a cease-fire, they will become a lost generation.”
More than 37,200 Palestinians have been killed since the start of the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip on October 7 most of them women and children.
