Excerpted from The Guardian March 27 article:
The UN reports that at least 14,500 children have been killed in Gaza– also probably a dramatic undercount. The real mortality figure is probably unknowable, not least because so many families have been killed at once, leaving no one to account for some babies or toddlers ever having existed.
Beyond the mass death, international agencies suggest that at least 110,000 people in Gaza have been injured, including at least 25,000 children. And Unicef estimates that between 3,000 and 4,000 children in Gaza have had one or more limbs amputated.
That small tract of earth is now home to more child amputees per inhabitant than anywhere else in the world.
