Child marriage rising in Gaza amid hunger and displacement
Original: Girls in Gaza forced into child marriage as Israel’s genocide fuels hunger and displacement
Girls in Gaza are being forced into child marriage as families grapple with severe hunger and displacement caused by Israel's military campaign, according to Mondoweiss. The report says poverty and the collapse of living conditions are pushing families into early marriages for daughters. Rights groups have long warned that the war's humanitarian toll is exposing children to exploitation and stripping them of education and futures.
Why now: The war in Gaza continues to drive humanitarian crises, and reports of child marriage highlight its impact on children.
