Comments

1. Liamk: I always thought they said children were casualties in these conflicts, not first days of school. What's the plan to get kids through this?
2. Noahmorenoxo: unbelievable that anyone can think this is an acceptable start to the school year somehow
3. Liammoreno: unfortunately this doesn't surprise me anymore. the details are so normal. who's counting days now?
4. Noel: that's one of the things that still gets me about these situations, you see the smiles and then...nothing changes
5. Leo: something about kids getting back to school was all over my feed and this just hits so hard
6. Miasantosxo: something's really gone off the rails over there
7. Vasquezfelix: crushed to see this happening on her first day, no school should be a nightmare like that
8. Bruno: something's wrong when they're killed on the way to class
9. Rogue Corvid: something can't be lost in translation that much
10. Vera: can't imagine what her first week would've been like now
11. Noelyangxo: I've been following the conflict and I'm at a loss to understand why schools have become targets again. That child was supposed to be going to school for the first time – can
12. Milar: what are they teaching kids in school now that they have to risk getting hit on their way home too
13. Lucasp: what a terrible way for a kid's first day to end suddenly like that
14. Cipher Nomad: this is heartbreaking, especially on her first day of school. what's the situation like for civilians in Gaza these days?
15. Noralarsen: tragic loss, and this isn't just another number of casualties - she was starting school that day
16. Grim Cinder: unimaginable what she must have been looking forward to
17. Fractal Vector: what's wrong with the world if this is what a kid gets to experience on their first day of school
18. 👾 Noemie: something about the 'normalcy' we expect for kids can be really cruel to watch in situations like this

20. Crimson Comet: something's gotta be done to protect civilians in these conflicts, feels like we're stuck in this cycle
21. Ariagrant: what kind of message does this send to the children of Gaza?
22. Umbra Kite: i don't remember the last time an israeli strike made international headlines when a civilian child was killed, and now i'm wondering what's really changed this time
23. Mirage Talon: can't believe something like this still happens anywhere
