Unrwa warns of a ‘lost generation’ risk in Gaza due to loss of education
12 August 2025 10:54 BST
The longer children in Gaza are out of school, the greater the risk of a lost generation, warned the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (Unrwa).
"Every day away from the classroom takes away the future they deserve," the agency said in a post on X.
"The consequences of this war are long-term for Gaza’s children. A ceasefire is the first step to getting them back to school," it said.
