KHAN YOUNIS, GAZA, PALESTINE - NOV. 20, 2025: Palestinian children in Gaza marked World Children’s Day on Thursday, Nov. 20, by displaying their drawings on the rubble of a destroyed building despite ongoing Israeli attacks.

The exhibition showcased artworks in which the children depicted their personal experiences of war and illustrated elements of Palestinian cultural heritage.

Organized by the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights, the event also featured a performance of traditional Palestinian songs.

"Gaza, despite siege and destruction, still has its children who draw, dream and raise their voices to tell the world we are here. We deserve life, we deserve safety," said the Palestinian girl in her opening speech at the exhibition.

She thanked everyone who raised their voice for children of Gaza and urged the children of the world to write to decision-makers in their countries to stop the genocide in Gaza.

Data from Palestinian factions, human rights groups, and government bodies indicate that Israel has carried out dozens of ceasefire violations since the agreement went into effect on Oct. 10.

Israel has killed 280 Palestinians and wounded 672 since Oct. 11, according to a Wednesday statement by Gaza’s Health Ministry.

Since October 2023, the Israeli army has killed nearly 70,000 people in Gaza, mostly women and children, injured over 170,000, and reduced most of the enclave to rubble.
