United Nations data shows an average of 47 women and girls have been killed daily during the ongoing war in Gaza.
The United Nations has reported that an average of 47 women and girls have been killed each day during the ongoing conflict in Gaza, according to new data released by the international organization.
The statistics highlight the civilian toll of the war, with women and children comprising a significant portion of casualties. The UN has been tracking fatalities throughout the conflict to document the humanitarian impact on Gaza's population.
The daily average represents part of broader casualty figures that international organizations have been compiling since the conflict began. Women and girls have faced particular vulnerabilities during the hostilities, including displacement from their homes and limited access to essential services.
The UN continues to call for protection of civilians and adherence to international humanitarian law during the conflict. The organization has emphasized that all parties have obligations under international law to distinguish between civilian and military targets and to take precautions to minimize civilian harm.
The casualty data comes as humanitarian organizations work to provide aid and document the conflict's impact on Gaza's civilian population, particularly vulnerable groups including women, children, and the elderly.
