Five staff members of the UN Palestinian relief agency have been killed in the past few days, according to the agency chief, Philippe Lazzarini.
“In the past few days another five UNRWA staff have been confirmed killed, bringing the death toll to 284. They were teachers, doctors and nurses: serving the most vulnerable,” he said in a statement on X.
“Israeli Forces bombardment continues from air and sea for the third day. We are fearing that the worst is yet to come given the ongoing ground invasion separating the north from the south,” he added.
