UNICEF: Over 560,000 Gaza children back in school
UNICEF warned of the health, psychological, and social risks threatening children in the Gaza Strip due to a shortage of safe drinking water, weakened sewage services, and the destruction of essential infrastructure. The organization also pointed out that ongoing displacement and delayed humanitarian response, caused by funding shortages, exacerbate the situation. They noted that over 560,000 children have returned to school since the ceasefire in October 2025, but continued fighting and infrastructure destruction hinder adequate assistance. UNICEF emphasized the urgent need for sustained aid and the rehabilitation of basic services to ensure children have access to education, healthcare, and psychological support, amid children suffering from the devastating impacts of war that have led to loss of life, displacement, and widespread destruction.
