Conflict · UN accuses Israel · ArchiefUN Accuses Israel of Deliberately Targeting Children; Over 20,000 Killed Since October 7Geschreven 7 september 2026 om 21:22 UTCKijkenTranscript0:00The United Nations has now accused0:01Israel of deliberately targeting0:03children in Gaza. The distinction is0:05between unintended deaths and a crime,0:07and Israel through NBC News says it0:09utterly rejects the accusation. This is0:11not a dispute about protecting civilians0:14in war. It is an allegation of intent0:16that places more than 20,000 dead0:18children at the center of a potential0:19international crime. More than 20,0000:22children have been killed since October0:237th, according to NBC News. That figure0:25now sits beneath the weight of a UN0:27finding that alleges intent. The report0:29itself has not been made public in full,0:31and its exact evidence and methodology0:33remain unseen. But the allegation alone0:36that a UN body would charge a member0:37state with the most serious violation0:39against civilians changes the legal and0:41moral stakes of the war. Behind the0:43accusation and the denial are children0:45who are still alive. NBC News reports on0:47a child named Yafa, a specific girl, not0:50a statistic, who faces loss and lack of0:52food and medicine with no end in sight.1:01A Palestinian doctor speaking to NBC1:03News described the situation in Gaza as1:06miserable and said children have1:07suffered a lot. He offered a clinical1:10observation, not a political one. For1:12the children of Gaza, hopes are fading1:14again tonight.Lees het artikelTijdlijn van het verhaalHeyDexDe korte video ↗
