In Gaza, more than 100 UN employees killed

More than 100 United Nations workers have been killed in Israel’s war on Gaza, the UN Palestinian Refugee Agency (UNRWA) said on Friday, making it the deadliest conflict ever for the UN in such a short period of time.

Over 100 UNRWA colleagues were confirmed killed in 1 month. Parents, teachers, nurses, doctors, support staff. UNRWA is mourning, Palestinians mourning, Israelis mourning,” Philippe Lazzarini said on social media platform X. The agency later said it was mourning 101 colleagues.

“They represent what is happening to the people of Gaza. They happen to work for the UN,” said Juliette Touma, Director of Communications at UNRWA. “They and every other civilian in the Gaza Strip…should never have been killed.”
