SITUATION UPDATE
As of 12 August, 39,897 Palestinians in Gaza have been killed and 92,152 reported injured, with many still missing under the rubble. With nowhere to flee, Palestinians face relentless and widespread attacks across the enclave.
As children worldwide prepare for the school year, the United Nations reports that 477 out of 564 schools in Gaza have been directly hit or damaged as of 6 July. In the past two weeks alone, eight schools have been struck, including the deadly 10 August attack on al-Tabin school-turned-shelter, where Israeli airstrikes killed at least 93 people during prayers and ignited a fire that could not be extinguished due to severe water shortages.
