Child Fatality Rate in Gaza: A Grim Reality Unfolds Every 10 Minutes

The World Health Organization (WHO) chief, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, addressed the UN Security Council, stating that a child is killed every 10 minutes in Gaza. He described the dire situation in Gaza, with the health system on the brink of collapse and over 250 attacks on health centers. The Council on American-Islamic Relations (Cair) reported a 216% increase in Islamophobia and anti-Arab sentiment in the US, while the Anti-Defamation League reported a nearly 400% increase in antisemitic incidents. French President Emmanuel Macron called for a ceasefire in Gaza, condemning the Israeli bombing of civilians, and the UN's human rights chief reiterated the urgent need for a humanitarian ceasefire. Meanwhile, an Israeli media advocacy group admitted there was no evidence to support its claim that major news organizations had prior knowledge of Hamas's attack on Israel.
