UN Commissioner Chris Sidoti explained why so many children have been killed and injured in Gaza, pointing to two factors
On October 31, 2026, UN Commissioner Chris Sidoti addressed the alarming number of child casualties in Gaza, attributing the situation to two main factors. According to Sidoti, the first factor is Israel's military strategy of total destruction, which has been in effect since October 7, 2023. The second factor involves the deliberate targeting of children by Israeli forces.
Sidoti cited a specific incident involving two brothers, aged 9 and 10, who were killed by an Israeli drone while gathering firewood approximately 100 meters from the yellow line. The commission concluded that the killing of children was deliberate, as reported by QudsNews. This statement highlights the ongoing concerns regarding the impact of military actions on civilians, particularly children, in the region.
