UNICEF Decries Israel's "War on Children" as Starvation & Deaths Mount in Gaza

The Israeli military on Sunday announced a daily "tactical pause" in its attacks on Rafah to allow humanitarian relief to enter the Gaza Strip, after systematically blocking aid from reaching Palestinians in Gaza since October 7. While a full ceasefire is still vital, "any pause in the bombing is good news for children," says UNICEF spokesperson James Elder, speaking to Democracy Now! from Rafah. "The physical and psychological exhaustion they face is almost impossible to capture," he says, characterizing Israel's offensive as "a war on children."
