United Nations committee highlights serious Israeli violations of international human rights law through 'indiscriminate and disproportionate attacks' affecting Gaza children. A United Nations official on Thursday accused Israel of committing historically unprecedented violations against Palestinian children, including mass killings and arbitrary detentions. "The outrageous death of children is almost historically unique. This is an extremely dark place in history," Bragi Gudbrandsson, vice chair of the Committee on the Rights of the Child (CRC), told reporters.
