UNICEF: More than 200 children killed within two months due to Israeli occupation’s war on Lebanon

BEIRUT, Nov. 20 (YPA) – The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) announced on Tuesday that more than 200 children have been killed in Lebanon in approximately two months since the start of the Israeli occupation attack, at a rate of more than three children per day.

The organization’s spokesman, James Elder, said in a press statement, “Despite the large number of children who lost their lives in such a short period, there is a worrying trend of dealing indifferently with these deaths by parties capable of stopping the escalation.”

Elder added, “We must all strive to ensure that humanity never again witnesses such a massacre of children as happened previously in the Gaza Strip. What is unacceptable should not become acceptable.”

He called for immediate action to stop targeting children and ensure their protection in times of conflict.
