UNRWA chief Philippe Lazzarini yesterday condemned Israel’s raid on an UNRWA school in Gaza City, the latest in a series of deadly Israeli attacks on schools sheltering displaced Palestinians in Gaza, the Palestinian Information Centre said.
“Is there any humanity left? Reports of another horrific attack today on one of our UNRWA schools in Gaza City. Children reported killed and injured. Some were burnt to death,” Lazzarini said in a post on X.
“Gaza is no place for children anymore. They are the first casualties of this merciless war. We cannot let the unbearable become a new norm. Enough. A ceasefire is beyond over due.”
