Image: Wasfi Akab Children run down a bombed street passing ruined buildings. The escalation of hostilities in the #Gaza Strip is having a catastrophic impact on children and families. Children are dying at an alarming rate – thousands have been killed and thousands more injured. Around 1.7 million people in the Gaza Strip are estimated to have been internally displaced – half of them children. They do not have enough access to water, food, fuel and medicine. More than 600,000 children are trapped in #Rafah alone, with nowhere safe to go. Their homes have been destroyed; their families torn apart. #UNICEF
