For Palestinian children in Gaza, an education in conflict

SUMMARY

Ever since Hamas launched demonstrations in March against Israel's blockade of Gaza, children have been a constant presence in the crowds. Since then, UN figures show that 948 children under 18 have been shot by Israeli forces and 2,295 have been hospitalized, including 17 who have had a limb amputated.
