Defence for Children Palestine, Feb 26, 2025

Defense for Children International – Palestine (DCIP) is an independent, local Palestinian child rights organization dedicated to defending and promoting the rights of children living in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip.

Since 1991, we have investigated, documented, and exposed grave human rights violations against children; provided legal services to children in urgent need; held Israeli and Palestinian authorities accountable to universal human rights principles; and advocated at the international and national levels to advance access to justice and protection for children.

For the past 15 months, Palestinian children in Gaza have endured unimaginable horrors: relentless bombings, the destruction of their homes, and the loss of their families. Thousands have been killed, and countless others have been illegally detained, orphaned, displaced, and have sustained lifelong injuries. They have suffered starvation under a total siege, been denied medical care, lost access to education, and left deeply traumatized. Now, their stories are brought to the forefront. 

This powerful documentary brings together firsthand testimonies from Palestinian children alongside footage capturing their reality. Their stories lay bare the devastating impact of Israel’s genocide against the Palestinian people—seen through the eyes of its youngest survivors.
