490 children killed by Israeli forces in 20 days

Israeli forces have killed 490 Palestinian children in the Gaza Strip over the past 20 days, according to a statement released Sunday by the Gaza media office, which denounced the deaths as part of an ongoing genocide against civilians in the enclave.

In a statement, the office described the actions as “one of the most horrific crimes against humanity in modern times,” accusing Israel of continuing to carry out brutal massacres against defenseless civilians in Gaza, with children being a primary target of airstrikes.
