War has pushed Gaza’s children to the brink – “like the living dead”
- A new report from the University of Cambridge and the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees details the collapse of education across Palestine, warning of a "lost" generation due to war and trauma.
- As of October 1, 2025, 18,069 students and 780 education staff were killed in Gaza, while 26,391 students and 3,211 teachers were injured; Save the Children estimates 15 children sustained life-altering injuries daily.
- Since October 2023, 891 students and 28 teachers have been killed or injured in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, where schools face "arbitrary" arrests and persistent disruptions. Children there lost at least 2.5 years of schooling.
- Restoring education requires US$1.38 billion, yet OCHA received only 5.7% of the US$230.3 million requested by July 2025. This funding gap fuels "donor fatigue" and deepens despair among families.
- Professor Pauline Rose, Director of the Research for Equitable Access and Learning Centre at Cambridge, warned that children's lives are "on the brink of a complete breakdown," requiring urgent international support.
