A series of negotiated ceaseres, stretching over nine days in
total, ended on 19 August before the midnight deadline.
Hostilities continued overnight and into today, resulting in
additional Palestinian fatalities and property damage. There has
been an increase in the number of internally displaced as
Palestinians, in particular from the northern and eastern areas of
Gaza, seeking a safe place in emergency shelters.
Twenty-two fatalities have been recorded in the reporting period,
comprising 17 new deaths and ve who succumbed to injuries
sustained earlier. Eleven of these have been classied as
civilians and the status of the others is unknown.
The number of child fatalities exceeds the combined number of
children killed in the two previous conicts in Gaza, 350 in
2008-9 and 35 in 2012. An estimated 1,000 children injured will
suffer from a disability for life, and a further 6,000 children
will have a parent with a life-long disability. Based on the total
number of adults killed, there may be up to 1,500 children
orphaned.
Dedicated health teams have continued working in all UNRWA
shelters and compile a daily health surveillance report to prevent
a large scale outbreak of diseases. The report now includes 16
health issues of concern, up from an initial nine.
