Original: Israeli war in Gaza killed more than 20,500 students since October 2023
Palestinian education authorities say the Israeli military campaign in Gaza has killed more than 20,500 students since October 2023. The figure, reported by Arab News, adds to mounting documentation of the war's toll on children and young people, with schools and universities across the territory destroyed or damaged. The scale of casualties among students has intensified international criticism of the offensive and renewed calls for a ceasefire and protection of civilians.
Why now: The reported death toll among Gaza's students is a stark new measure of the human cost of the war, drawing widespread attention and condemnation.
