Children’s mental wellbeing is being pushed beyond breaking point as experts warn of huge consequences.
For the children of Gaza, there is no “post” in post-traumatic stress disorder. The trauma is constant and relentless. Many of those who survived lost parents, or limbs, or both. These children do not play or go to school. They fight to survive, searching for food among the rubble. So what future does this trauma leave for the children of Palestine?
