TEHRAN (Defapress) - According to the Palestinian news agency Shahab, medical and hospital reports from Gaza indicate that at least 800 children under one-year-old have been killed in Gaza during the brutal Israeli attack on the Gaza Strip since October 7 last year and over the past 450 days.

The report adds that many of these babies were born during the war and martyred in the brutal Israeli attacks before reaching their first birthday.

In addition to this number, the phenomenon of infants martyring due to the extreme cold of winter is an issue that has recently affected Palestinian children. In light of the ongoing war crimes of the Israeli regime in Gaza, six children have lost their lives as a result of the cold weather.

Another child was martyred last night due to the extreme cold in the Palestinian refugee camps. The infant, a month old, died after his twin brother died a day earlier in the Deir Balah camp due to the extreme cold.

In addition to these two children, four other newborns have been martyred in Gaza in recent days due to the extreme cold.

Local sources also report that the lack of food security among pregnant and lactating mothers has led to new diseases among children, and the harsh conditions in which these children live have weakened their immune systems.
