Situación en Gaza
Jonathan Crickx, Jefe de Comunicación en el Estado de Palestina para el Fondo de las Naciones Unidas para la Infancia (UNICEF), hablando desde Jerusalén, afirmó que el UNICEF estimaba que al menos 17,000 niños en la Franja de Gaza estaban sin acompañamiento de sus padres o familiares, o separados de ambos padres o cuidadores anteriores.
