Over nine months into the violence that has been ransacking the lives of Palestinians, efforts to help are coming from all corners of the globe.
Unlike in Palestine, where local authorities have made it clear that it is in the best interests of Palestinian children for their care to remain in Palestine, most of these countries had no oversight to check the nature or ethics of these adoptions.
Despite this decrease, the complications that come with international adoption remain. Even with global frameworks like the Hague Convention - which includes a series of declarations on international adoptions and the protection of children - adoption systems continue to fail children across the world.
By 2023, US families adopted 1,275 children from other countries, the lowest number of international adoptions on record.
