Helped one child; killed 5,500 other children, as at November 22nd.

Of course it's good to help a child, but this smells like a propaganda piece.

In total so far, "18,205 Palestinians have been killed, and 49,645 injured":

Of course it’s good to help a child, but this smells like a propaganda piece.

Even if it's 100% true and happened exactly like it's described in the article, it's obviously propaganda.
