The UN’s child relief agency said on Sunday that over 13,000 children have been killed in the Gaza Strip and that many more could be dead under the rubble.

“Thousands more have been injured, or we can’t even determine where they are. They may be stuck under rubble,” said UNICEF Executive Director Catherine Russell, according to Reuters. “We haven’t seen that rate of death among children in almost any other conflict in the world.”

Gaza’s Health Ministry has said over 31,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza and has consistently stated that around 70% of the casualties are women and children.

Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin previously said over 25,000 women and children had been killed in Gaza, but the Pentagon walked his comment back, claiming he was talking about all Palestinians killed.

US Senator Slams Israeli Claims About UNRWA as Flat-Out Lies

A Democratic Senator blasted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other leaders in Tel Aviv for making false accusations about aid agencies operating in Gaza. Tel Aviv has charged the UN aid agency for Palestinians (UNRWA) with acting as a proxy of Hamas.

Sen. Chris Van Hollen said, on “Face the Nation,” that Netnayhu’s accusations against UNRWA were an attempt to eliminate the aid agency. “There’s no doubt that the claim that Prime Minister Netanyahu and others are making, that somehow UNRWA is a proxy for Hamas, are just flat-out lies,” he explained. “That’s a flat-out lie. If you look at the person who’s in charge of operations on the ground in Gaza for UNRWA, it’s about a 20-year US Army veteran. You can be sure he is not in cahoots with Hamas. Netanyahu has wanted to get rid of UNRWA since at least 2017.”

In January, Tel Aviv claimed it had compiled an intelligence dossier that showed expensive ties between Hamas and the aid agency, including that 12 UNRWA employees participated in the October 7 attack. However, over the past two months, Israel has failed to produce evidence to back the allegations. Additionally, a UNRWA investigation has uncovered Israelis used torture to generate false confessions from Palestinians.
