STORYLINE:
A Brazilian NGO placed 120 burial shrouds on Copacabana beach on Friday representing the children killed in the Gaza Strip after the start of the Israel-Hamas war, calling for an immediate ceasefire.
The burial shrouds had names and ages of young victims, as well as a Palestinian flag next to each one.
“This act is not against Israel, it is against the war. It’s not possible that in the name of self-defence you launch a missile at a densely populated area knowing beforehand that you’ll tear apart bodies of boys and girls,” said Antonio Carlos Costa, founder of NGO Rio de Paz, who organized the act.
More than 3,600 Palestinian children were killed in the first 25 days of the Israel-Hamas war, according to Gaza’s Hamas-run Health Ministry.
Bombardment has driven over half of the territory’s 2.3 million people from their homes.
Food, water, and fuel are running low under Israel’s siege, and overwhelmed hospitals warn they are on the verge of collapse.
More than 9,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza so far, and another 1,400 people have died in Israel, mainly civilians killed during Hamas’ initial attack on Oct. 7.
Around 240 hostages were taken from Israel into Gaza by the militant group.
In addition to the 9,061 Palestinians killed in the war, mostly women and minors, more than 32,000 people have been wounded, the Gaza Health Ministry said, without providing a breakdown between civilians and fighters.
In Israel, some 5,400 have been injured in addition to the 1,400 killed, and 19 Israeli soldiers have been killed in Gaza since the start of the ground operation.
