Sudan Events – Sumaya Sayed
The head of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees UNRWA reiterated his call for a truce in Gaza, saying they were receiving “horrifying images and footage of scores of people killed and injured” during the Israeli attack on Al-Fakhoura school in the enclave.
“Receiving horrifying images & footage of scores of people killed and injured in another UNRWA school sheltering thousands of displaced in the north of the Gaza Strip. These attacks cannot become commonplace, they must stop. A humanitarian ceasefire cannot wait any longer,” Philippe Lazzarini said on X platform.
“Constant horrors, another UNRWA school bombarded several times in the north of Gaza sheltering more than 4,000 people. Dozens reported killed including children. Second time in less than 24 hours schools are not spared. ENOUGH, these horrors must stop” he wrote in another post.
Earlier Saturday, dozens of Palestinians were killed and injured in the Israeli bombardment of the UN-run learning center in the Jabalia refugee camp.
