  • The focus is also aimed at raising awareness among the Palestinians, who have not yet been identified among the rubble. Israel has killed more than 18,000 minors in the Gaza Strip since 7 October. According to Elisa Huarte of BDZ, “there are white streaks on the lists that represent names still unknown.”

On Saturday at noon, the Yala Navarre and BDS groups organized an event in Plaza Baluarte de Pamplona to remember the Palestinian children killed since the beginning of the Israeli offensive on 7 October 2023. For 30 hours, over 14,000 names will be read uninterruptedly around the world. However, according to the Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip, the actual number is 17,400.

In the center of the plaza, a white cube has been placed that symbolizes the "isolation" suffered by Gaza and the Plaestine. The names of the minors who have died in the accident have been read. Black plastics have also been put in place for citizens to write positive messages to the Gaza Strip. Around, scattered toys and slippers for children representing minor victims. 250 and 300 people have participated individually and representing groups, trade unions and political parties. Videos have been shown in collaboration with artists such as Rozalén, Amparanoia and Fermín Muguruza, among others.

Yala, Gaxan Sad of Navarra, explained that the event was held on December 28, "for being the Day of the Innocent Saints, remembering the death of children in Palestine. Today, 2,000 years later, there are still innocent victims in this region." Elisa Huarte, of the BDZ, said that in the pages with names and surnames "there are white lines to make visible those who have not yet identified" because "below the residues are buried minors and adults".
