A Palestinian child amputee is seen at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in the city of Deir al-Balah, central Gaza Strip, on Oct. 5, 2024. Since the outbreak of the conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza on Oct. 7, 2023, over 41,800 Palestinians have been killed, and more than 96,900 injured in the Gaza Strip, with a significant proportion of them being children and women, according to health authorities in Gaza. The World Health Organization estimates in mid-September that at least 22,500 of these injuries are "life-changing" that require long-term rehabilitation. Among these, severe limb injuries are most prevalent, with amputations numbering between 3,000 and 4,000. TO GO WITH Feature: War leaves child amputees helpless in Gaza .
