💨 Abstract

The U.N. Human Rights Office has reported that nearly 70% of verified fatalities in the Gaza war were women and children, indicating a systematic violation of international humanitarian law. The report, covering the first seven months of the Israel-Hamas conflict, states that children represented 44% of the victims, with most being aged five to nine. The U.N. condemned Israel for using weapons with wide-area effects, potentially causing civilian casualties.
