In a tragic announcement by the Palestinian government in Gaza, it was revealed that 750 employees of educational centers have been martyred since the beginning of the war on October 7. Additionally, over 11,000 Palestinian students lost their lives, and thousands more were injured in attacks by the Zionist regime.
Furthermore, 120 schools and universities were completely destroyed by Israeli forces, while 340 others suffered varying degrees of damage. The Hamas movement condemned these actions, stating that the assault on Palestinian education is a Zionist crime that will not succeed in erasing their national identity or rights.
It is a heartbreaking reality that the future of education in Gaza is under threat due to the ongoing conflict. The international community must strive to protect the rights of students and educators in the region, ensuring that education remains a fundamental right for all.
