At least 322 children killed since Israel's new Gaza offensive, Unicef says

The United Nations agency for children says that at least 322 children are reported to have been killed since Israel launched a renewed offensive in Gaza two weeks ago.

Unicef said at least 609 other children were reportedly wounded during the same period.
"The ceasefire in Gaza provided a desperately needed lifeline for Gaza's children and hope for a path to recovery," said Unicef Executive Director Catherine Russell. "But children have again been plunged into a cycle of deadly violence and deprivation."



Unicef said "relentless and indiscriminate bombardments" had resumed in Gaza, with 100 children killed or maimed every day in the 10 days to 31 March.

Most of the children who were killed had been displaced and were sheltering in makeshift tents or damaged homes, it said.

Thom Hartmann said be careful what you say. If you bash Bibi you can be deemed a Hamas supporting terrorist and shipped off to El Salvador with no means to return.

This is fascism. They pick on the weakest people first and when that becomes accepted then they can move on to snatching anyone and shipping him/her to a hell hole prison.
