A former aide to ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, Bashir Ahmad, has accused Israel of targeting children in its war in the Gaza Strip.

Ahmad said Israel kills at least one child in Gaza every 10 minutes.

Posting on X, the former presidential aide wrote: “Israel kills a child in Gaza every ten minutes.”

This is coming when Israel launched a military campaign on the Gaza Strip that has left more than 34,000 Palestinians dead.

Israel’s military campaign followed an attack launched by Hamas in October that left 1,200 Israelis dead and led to 253 being taken hostage.
