Gaza Conflict: UN Ambassador's Emotional Plea Highlights Children's Suffering The ongoing conflict in Gaza has claimed the lives of thousands, including over 1,300 Palestinian children. This devastating reality was brought into stark relief during an address to the UN Security Council by Palestinian UN Ambassador Riyad Mansour. In a deeply moving speech, Ambassador Mansour recounted the horrific experiences of children in Gaza, his voice choked with emotion as he described scenes of starvation and grieving mothers. His words, "The images of mothers embracing their motionless bodies, caressing their hair, talking to them, apologizing to them...is unbearable," resonated deeply with the audience. The speech underscored the urgent need for international action to address the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and bring an end to the violence. Medical sources reported by the Palestine News and Info Agency (Wafa) on May 28th, confirm a death toll of 54,249, with the majority being women and children, since the start of the military offensive on October 7th, 2023.
