The BBC has investigated more than 160 cases of children being shot in Gaza, of whom 95 were shot in the head or chest, most under the age of 12. The victims include Layan al-Majdalawi, 2, and Mira Tanboura, 6, who both died in November 2023.
Witnesses, medical staff and human rights groups say the real number is much higher, possibly in the hundreds, but many cases remain uninvestigated due to an Israeli reporting ban
