UNICEF says that nearly all of Gaza\u2019s 1.1 million children need mental health and psychosocial support amid the ongoing Israeli bombardment, displacement and dire living conditions.
\nChildren suffer from nightmares, anxiety and paralyzing fear due to air strikes and the loss of family members.
\nMany become aggressive, withdrawn, or stop speaking.
\nThe United Nations estimates that at least 19,000 Palestinian children have been orphaned since the war began.
\nMental health experts caution that the scars inflicted on these young minds could persist for generations.<\/p>\n
Liz Allcock is the head of protection at Medical Aid for Palestinians. She calls the situation \u201can unprecedented crisis\u201d in Gaza, where children had already been traumatized even before the war.<\/p>\n
