Geneva: Over 10,000 women have been martyred in the Gaza enclave since the start of the Israeli aggression, among them an estimated 6,000 mothers, leaving 19,000 children orphaned, said UN Women while launching its latest Gender Alert on Gaza on Tuesday.

During a press conference in Geneva, UN Women stated that women who have survived Israeli bombardment and ground operations have been displaced, widowed, and facing starvation, pointing out that this devastating differentiated impact continues to make the war on Gaza also a war on women.
