The UNICEF spokesman, Kazem Abu Khalaf, said these children, who are often referred to as "unaccompanied children,", are suffering deeply as a result of the aggression, whether they have lost both their parents or they are separated from each other due to displacement.
 
According to the organization's official website, the spokesman indicated that "the number of unaccompanied children in Gaza is a purely estimated number, because we cannot accurately determine the numbers."
 
He added, "from our experience as an institution working in war and conflict zones in the world, there is a percentage of 1 percent of the total number of unaccompanied children, whose father or mother may be alive, or orphans."
 
Abu Khalaf confirmed that there are 1.9 million displaced people in Gaza, and therefore, the estimated number is 19 thousand unaccompanied children who may be orphans or whose parents were separated from them by the war.
 
It is worth noting that in cases where there is no family reunification, or the child has become an orphan, there is the extended family, whether cousins ​​or maternal uncles and grandmothers or grandfathers, who take care of the children and provide care until things improve, and support is provided to them.
