Almost every child in the Gaza Strip has been exposed to widespread destruction, relentless attacks, displacement, and severe shortages of essentials such as food, water, and medicine.

UNICEF is calling for an urgent ceasefire, humanitarian access and release of all hostages.

More than 400 children reportedly either killed or injured daily in #Gaza: Child casualties in Gaza “a growing stain on our collective conscience”. https://t.co/S71n4th4Mf

[UNRWA @UNRWA]

🆘 @UNRWA will run out of fuel in three days

Without fuel, there will be no water, no functioning hospitals and bakeries.

Without fuel, there will be no humanitarian assistance.

No fuel will further strangle the children, women and people of 📍#Gaza

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

My appeal today from the Middle East:

Immediate, unrestricted & sustained humanitarian aid for civilians in Gaza.

Immediate & unconditional release of all hostages.

Immediate & dedicated efforts to prevent the spread of violence, which is increasing the risk of spillover.

[UNICEF MENA - يونيسف الشرق الأوسط وشمال إفريقيا @UNICEFmena]

Time is running out for the children of #Gaza.

We call for an immediate cessation of hostilities and facilitating the safe and timely access of humanitarian aid to children in need wherever they are.

Civilians are #NotATarget
Children are #NotATarget
Violence should stop. Humanity should prevail.

[UNICEF Iraq - يونيسف العراق @UNICEFiraq]

The United Nations in Iraq condemns the abhorrent killing of Tiba al-Ali, a 22-year-old woman. The avoidable death of Tiba is a regretful reminder of the violence and injustice that still exists against women and girls in Iraq today.

[Sheema SenGupta @ShSenGupta]

On #UNDay, I’m happy that @UNICEFIraq presented the evaluation of the humanitarian #WASH response. Thorough evaluation of our work provides us with key insights on what worked well & what needs improvement to ensure sustainable solutions #ForEveryChild.
