JAKARTA - In just five months, Israel has killed more children in Gaza than the total number of children killed by worldwide conflicts in the past four years, the United Nations reports.

Dalam laporan yang disampaikan kepada PBB,menuh Albanese, pelapor khusus PBB untuk wilayah Palestina yang ditangku Israel, mengecam krisis yang sedang berlangsung di Gaza, dan menggambarkannya sebagai proses systematic yang sama saja dengan genociasi.

The Albanese report underscores the terrible reality facing Palestinian children under Israeli occupation, and highlights the adverse effects of the conflict.

"Dismantling a population of its roots. Genocide is a process, not an action, and what is happening in Gaza is a tragedy that has been predicted. Look at my report on the treatment of Palestinian children under Israeli occupation," Albanese wrote on social media X as reported by ANTARA from Anadolu, Thursday, March 14.

In his upload, Albanese showed the number of children killed by Israeli attacks on Gaza from October 2023 to February 2024 reached 12,300, while world conflicts since 2019 have killed 12,193 children.

The report details the relentless attacks on Gazan civilians, especially children, who are the most affected by the violence.

Albanese's findings provide a troubling picture of systematic targeting, indiscriminate bombing, and destruction of critical infrastructure, causing many families to flee and the community to collapse, Anadolu reported.

On October 7, 2023, Hamas launched a massive rocket attack on Israel from Gaza and broke through the border. The attack killed 1,200 people and Hamas took 240 others hostage.

Israel then retaliated with an all-out attack, blockaded fully Gaza, launching ground attacks within the Palestinian enclave to "instigate Hamas fighters and free hostages".

It is recorded that 31,100 people have died in the Gaza Strip and more than 73,000 others have been injured in mass destruction and shortages of staples.

On November 24, Qatar mediated negotiations between Israel and Hamas for prisoner swaps with hostages and a ceasefire, allowing humanitarian aid to enter Gaza. The ceasefire was extended several times and ended on December 1.

More than 100 people are believed to be still being held hostage by Hamas in Gaza.

An intermediate decision by the International Court in January ordered Israel to stop genocide and take action that could ensure humanitarian aid was provided to civilians in Gaza.
