More than 70 percent of Gaza's martyrs are women and children
On the other hand, the United Nations Special Representative on Violence against Women and Girls, Reem Al Saleem, says that the number of martyred women and children in the Israeli bombardment in Gaza is the highest in recent conflicts.
According to Reem al-Salim, more than 70 percent of the martyred Palestinians in Gaza are women and children.
"Words have run out to describe the unspeakable level of suffering and horrors in Gaza," he said, adding that to be a Palestinian woman or child in this hell meant to be stripped of humanity, safety or any special protection.
