118 children have been killed and 372 more have been injured in Lebanon

Across the wider region, the scale of the tragedy is immense. UNICEF reported that more than 2,100 children have been killed or injured since the beginning of the war, including 206 children killed in Iran, 118 in Lebanon, four children killed in Israel, and one in Kuwait. Chaiban cautioned that “These are the reported figures and they are expected to rise as the violence continues," estimating this to be “an average of approximately 87 children either killed or injured every day.”
Ms. Albanese briefed journalists on her findings, which detailed concerns over torture, deaths in custody, the extensive destruction of Gaza’s health system, and what she categorized as a broader system of violence against Palestinians. The subsequent Q&A session focused on key contentious issues, including Israel’s criticism of her mandate, the international community’s response, challenges related to access and conditions in Gaza, deaths in custody, and the devastating impact on medical personnel.-----Humanitarian Crisis Update: Children in the Middle East Conflict
