Nearly 40, 000.
That's the United Nations estimate for the number of children who have been killed or injured since Israel began its war with Hamas some 18 months ago.
Last year, NPR profiled one injured Gazan boy, Nimer Sadi al-Nimer, who was shot five times by the Israeli military while he and his father were gathering food dropped by parachute outside Gaza City.
This week, NPR Gaza producer Anas Baba tracked Nimer down to hear what the past year has been like.
NPR correspondent Rob Schmitz speaks with Baba about what he learned after reconnecting with Nimer.

It’s 10 years since the invention of the Lightning Network! Is it a success or failure?
You're listening to Bitcoin Season 2. Subscribe to the newsletter, trusted by over 7,000 Bitcoiners: https://newsletter.blockspacemedia.com
Matt Kimmell joins us to evaluate the Lightning Network's decade long journey. We break down Lightning using simple analogies (bar tabs and abacuses!), trace its historical development through Bitcoin's scaling debates, and try to assess its successes and disappointments. While Lightning functions technically and has achieved notable adoption milestones, the we discuss why user experience remains challenging and if we can address persistent issues like channel liquidity management and offline reception problems.
Notes
- Lightning whitepaper published in 2015 (decade ago)
- Three softforks enabled Lightning functionality
- Trump used Lightning for burger purchase on camera
- Many Lightning wallet providers have shut down
- Channel liquidity management remains a major UX issue
- Binance and major exchanges now support Lightning
