UNICEF says 17 children killed in Gaza, and 2 in West Bank so far in
November, 40 killed in July
Nineteen Palestinian children have been killed in the past 10 days,
making November already the
second deadliest month of the year for young people in the West Bank and
Gaza Strip, UNICEF said Friday.
The UN children's Fund said 17 have been killed in Gaza and two in the
West Bank so far in November. Only July - when 40 children were killed -
was worse, the agency said.
"What children and adolescents have endured the past few days will
likely have a long-lasting impact," UNICEF spokesman Michael Bociurkiw
said in Geneva. "They have seen family members killed and their
communities destroyed.
They have been confined to their homes, in many cases without access to
food, water or electricity."
Israeli artillery shells ripped through a residential neighborhood
Wednesday in the northern Gaza town of Beit Hanoun, killing at least 18
people , including eight children.
Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said a "technical failure" meant the
artillery hit the homes instead of an
orange grove, some 1,500 feet away, from which troops saw rockets fired
seconds earlier.
Bociurkiw estimated that more than 300 children have been injured this
month by Israeli attacks. For the year, he said 116 Palestinian children
have been killed, compared with only 52 last year.
