Why it matters:
Global concern grows over the worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where infrastructure has been decimated and civilian casualties continue to rise.
The big picture:
Gaza’s education system is on the brink of collapse, with many schools either destroyed or converted into shelters.Israeli forces have deliberately targeted hospitals and medical facilities.Aid agencies warn that the long-term effects on children could be catastrophic, both psychologically and in terms of development.
Between the lines:
Although Israel claims its operations are aimed at militant infrastructure, rights groups and UN agencies report that the civilian toll is disproportionately high and essential services—including education—are being systematically destroyed.
