By IAK staff, from reports: UN Women, the United Nations entity dedicated to gender equality and the empowerment of women, released a report on Gaza today. A few highlights:
Women and children are the main victims
of Israel’s war on Gaza with some 16,000 killed so far and an estimated
two mothers killed every hour in the Palestinian territory.
Added to the fact that 70 percent of all
those killed in Gaza are women and girls, 10,000 children have lost
their fathers since Israel’s war on the territory began on October 7,
and one million women and girls are among those displaced.
Women and girls have been deprived of
safety, healthcare, shelter, and now “they face imminent starvation and
famine”, UN Women, the agency which promoted gender equality, said on
Friday.
“The generational trauma inflicted on
Palestinian people over these 100 days and counting, will haunt us all
for generations to come…These are people, not numbers. We are failing them.” Read the detailed report here.
