Malala penned a heartwarming note saying, “Like many others around the world, I am devastated by the brutality and inhumanity against Palestinian children. They deserve to live in peace, to feel safe in their homes, to be educated and to pursue their dreams – just like any other child.”
She added,”I hope these gifts will help them return to school and start the process of rebuilding their lives. I want Palestinian children to know that I stand with them and believe in their future. I pray for a lasting peace in the region and call on leaders to protect every child’s fundamental rights.”
Malala has been highly applauded for stepping up to ensure that this generation of Palestinian children does not miss out on school.
