Palestinian children live in an ongoing tragedy and suffering due to the daily violations they face at the hands of the Israeli occupation.
Since the beginning of this year, at least 77 Palestinian children have been killed, 61 of them were killed in the Gaza Strip as a result of the brutal Israeli aggression last May, and the rest were killed in the areas of the West Bank and occupied Jerusalem, by the occupation forces or Israeli settlers.
Furthermore, 1150 Palestinian children were arrested, 160 of whom are still detained, and they have all been subjected to brutal violations.
The right to education, the right to receive appropriate health care, the right to live in safety and move freely, the right to shelter, all of which Palestinian children are stripped of due to apartheid laws and settlement plans that threaten Palestinians in general, as well as the blockade of Gaza.
