Five children are killed by an Israeli airstrike in a “safe zone” in Gaza: Unicef
The United Nations Children’s Fund said that five children were murdered and others were injured when an Israeli airstrike struck a tent for displaced Palestinians in a so-called “humanitarian zone,” according to Al Jazeera.
Three boys and two girls were killed in the incident, which happened in al-Mawasi, a coastal location close to the town of Khan Younis in the south. According to Unicef, they were all between the ages of seven and thirteen.
The UN organization stated, “Children have nowhere to be protected from bombs, cold, disease, and hunger.”
“This has to end right away.”
