According to Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, Israel has killed 2,100 Palestinian babies under the age of two since October, out of a total of 17,000 children killed.

This is a rate of about 210 babies per month, or 7 babies a day, killed by Israel’s extermination campaign, and Euro-Med reports that infant deaths are being reported every day in Gaza due to Israel’s starvation campaign, bombings and destruction of the medical system.

Most of the infant deaths to starvation and thirst are not included in the official death count from the Palestinian health ministry, which surpassed 40,000 on Thursday, due to vast difficulties in counting such deaths; the death toll is likely far higher than the official death count, experts have said. Many pregnancies have also been forcibly ended due to Israel’s assault on hospitals, the group notes.
