Ann Skelton, President of the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child, points out that more children are killed by IDF attacks in Gaza than adults. Children can't run as fast, can't decide themselves to flee their home if there is an impending attack, and don't understand danger or ways to mitigate it as well as adults. These things compound the danger they face from their homes and care settings being targeted by the IDF during missile or air strikes, but it has become clear that the IDF deliberately targets children, with many dead children shot by snipers in the head, which means they were purposely killed by shooters that identified them clearly.
