Shafaqna English- The UN’s agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) said that over 650,000 children are deprived of education due to the Israeli war in Gaza for the third consecutive year.
“In Gaza, children are out of school for a third year in a row,” UNRWA said on the US social media company X. “For nearly 660,000 girls and boys, returning to learning is not only about education, it’s about starting to heal from deep trauma.”
As the largest humanitarian organization in Gaza, UNRWA stands ready to support them, the agency added.
Tamara Alrifai, UNRWA’s Director for external relations, said a “priority for UNRWA is the education for children and the resumption of learning for children.”
