Switzerland has announced plans to accept around 20 injured children from Gaza for medical treatment as part of a humanitarian initiative coordinated with the World Health Organization. The children will receive specialized care for conditions that cannot be treated locally, while also being processed through the asylum system. This effort comes as Gaza's healthcare system struggles amid the ongoing conflict that has claimed over 65,000 Palestinian lives and left thousands of children with serious medical needs.
