Gaza children: War, bombs and polio
On September 1, the United Nations and Palestinian health authorities launched a vaccination campaign in the Gaza Strip to protect children against poliovirus, which can cause paralysis or death.
Yet, polio is not the only thing that threats children in Gaza. War and its resultant consequences have already claimed thousands of childrens lives in this corner of the world.
International and humanitarian law mandates "special respect and protection" for children during armed conflicts. While these laws may theoretically apply to Palestinian children, their enforcement in practice is severely lacking.
