لا مكان آمن في قطاع #غزة. ”الجميع يتحملون جزءًا من المسؤولية عن هذا الوضع، ولكن هناك ضحية واحدة فقط. أمس، واليوم، وبدون اتخاذ إجراءات ملموسة، غدًا، هم الأطفال الفلسطينيون.“
جيمس إلدر، المتحدث باسم اليونيسف خلال المؤتمر الصحفي الذي عُقد في قصر الأمم بجنيف في 03 أكتوبر 2025.
Nulle part n'est sûr dans la bande de #Gaza.
« Tout le monde porte une part de responsabilité dans cette situation, mais il n’y a qu’une seule victime. Hier, aujourd’hui et, sans action significative, demain, ce sont les enfants palestiniens. » James Elder, Porte-parole de l’UNICEF, lors de la conférence de presse qui s’est tenue le 03 octobre 2025 au Palais des Nations à Genève.
Gaza City remains home to 10s of thousands of children. So you've got shoeless children who push grandparents around the rubble. Amputee children are struggling through the dust. Mothers are carrying exhausted children who's literally their skin is bleeding because of the severity of rashes. Children are they're shuddering at this relentlessness of air strikes. And children gazed skywards to try and track the fire from helicopters and and quadcopters. The logic imposed on people in Gaza is both. Brutal and contradictory, the North has been declared A hostile ground, so those who remain to be branded as suspects. Let's be clear, the issuance of a general or a blanket evacuation order to civilians does not mean that those who remain behind lose their protection as civilians. The South and its so-called safe zones, these are also places of death. Alma Wasi is now one of the most densely populated places on earth. It's grotesquely overcrowded and and it has been stripped of the most. Basic essentials of survival When the world adjusts and normalises this level of of of violence and of deprivation, something is profoundly broken the strength of international law doesn't lie in paper, but it's in the resolve of member states to uphold it. Meanwhile, frontline workers, UNICEF, our partners are still doing everything they possibly can, supplying, ready to use therapeutic food from our large babies in Gaza City, repairing water lines, delivering cash assistance, providing. Formal support, mental health, waste collection. But until all restrictions are removed on the entry and the safe delivery, safe delivery of humanitarian aid, the provision of life saving aid will continue to be woefully inadequate. Now, in that time we've reported on a war on children, a famine and a polio outbreak. Always, always and only with data and testimonials. And yet somehow today things are worse than any other time. Everyone bears responsibility for this. But there's only one victim yesterday, today and without meaningful action tomorrow, Palestinian girls and boys.
