Since the start of the ongoing war, over 7000 children have been killed in Gaza and thousands more have been injured.
Muntada Aid, in partnership with Palestine Trauma Centre, runs a PTSD clinic in Gaza. Unfortunately, it was bombed in October. But seeing the suffering of children, our brave team on the ground decided to run to some play activity sessions for children in the south of Gaza.
These are a few pictures of one of these sessions conducted earlier this month.
Even before the ongoing war, children in Gaza have long been suffering from various mental health issues.
A study conducted in 2020 found that 53.5 percent of children in Gaza had PTSD. Nearly 90 percent had experienced personal trauma. A study released this summer says 9 out of 10 children in Gaza suffer from some form of conflict-related trauma.
