MORE women and children have been killed by Israel in Gaza in the last 12 months than perished in the equivalent period of any other conflict over the past 20 years, damning new research published by Oxfam today shows.

The charity highlights conservative figures that estimate 6,000 women and 11,000 children in Gaza have been killed by the Israeli military in the past year.

But the numbers exclude those among the 20,000 who are unidentified or missing.

No other conflict has caused such a high number of child or women fatalities within a 12-month period, over the past two decades.
