In the span of 18 months, Russia's conflict with Ukraine has resulted in the tragic death of approximately 560 children, averaging around 31 children per month.

In a stark and unsettling contrast, Israel's offensive against Palestinians in Gaza has claimed the lives of a staggering 8,000 children in just two and a half months, resulting in an alarming monthly average of 3,200 children.

This grim comparison highlights a shocking discrepancy in the casualty rates between the two conflicts.

Despite the widely portrayed narrative of Russian President Vladimir Putin as the epitome of evil, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's military campaign in Gaza – framed as a religious "war of extermination" with the goal of "wiping out Amalek" – has led to a child mortality rate over 100 times higher than that of Russia's war in Ukraine.

It's crucial to note the demographic differences between Ukraine and Gaza. Ukraine's population is 22 times larger than that of the Gaza Strip, with 44 million compared to Gaza's two million. When considering these population variances, the impact of child casualties per capita becomes even more staggering.

One might expect that such a drastic difference in child casualties would result in media coverage that reflects the severity of the situation. However, the reality has been quite the opposite.
