As Gaza passes the two-year mark since October 7, 2023, the territory emerges deeply scarred by relentless bombardment, mass displacement, and a crippling siege.
By the Numbers: Data reveals that 83 percent of those killed in this conflict have been civilians—an alarmingly high ratio even by modern warfare standards.
Humanitarian Fallout: Severe food deprivation and a collapsed healthcare system are pushing birth outcomes to the brink. Pregnant women face critical shortages of nutrition and medical care, while newborns struggle in understaffed clinics with limited supplies.
Experts warn that these conditions threaten the survival of an entire generation. With hospitals operating on emergency power and basic medicines running out, residents of Gaza grapple with daily uncertainty and loss.
As the world marks this grim anniversary, the fate of Gaza's next generation hangs in the balance, underscoring the urgent need for sustainable relief and stronger global engagement.
