The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) said Friday that more than 625,000 children have been deprived of school for more than 8 months as a result of the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip.

The UNRWA explained, through its account on the X platform, that more than 625,000 children in Gaza have been out of school for more than 8 months, including 300,000 who were students in UNRWA schools before the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip on October 7th.

The Israeli occupation forces continue their intense, comprehensive and unprecedented aggression against the Gaza Strip for the 266th day in a row, through bombing by air, land and sea, committing massacres against Palestinian civilians, leaving tens of thousands martyred, wounded and missing, and causing massive destruction to infrastructure, facilities and vital installations, in addition to unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe in the Strip.
