Analysis by Nour Naim examining Israel's systematic destruction of Gaza's education sector since October 7, 2023, framing it as "scholasticide." The piece covers the destruction of all 12 of Gaza's higher education institutions, the killing of students and education staff, targetted assassinations of academics and university presidents, the destruction of museums and cultural heritage sites, and the reasons behind Israel's assault of education including suppressing the Palestinian narrative and forcing dependency. The article also looks at future steps for rebuilding the education sector after the war. This piece is valuable for research on scholasticide, cultural genocide, Palestinian education, UNRWA, and Gaza reconstruction.
