A United Nations committee appealed on Thursday for "massive psychosocial support" for children traumatized by violence in Gaza, and said it would review Israel's treatment of children later this year, APA reports citing Reuters.
Israel's military operation in Gaza, launched in southern Israel on Oct. 7, has displaced most of the Palestinian enclave's 2.3 million people, left homes and infrastructure in ruins and caused acute shortages of food, water and medicine.
"We call for massive psychosocial support for children and families to relieve the traumatic and long-lasting impact of war, including Israeli children who were victims of, or witnesses to, the (Oct. 7) attacks and those whose family members have been taken hostage," she told a news conference.
