UNICEF calls on the Israeli occupation to stop targeting civilians and humanitarian workers
The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) called on the Israeli occupation entity to stop its attacks on civilians, humanitarian workers, and the remaining facilities and infrastructure inside the Gaza Strip, expressing its protest against its attack yesterday on one of its employees in the city of Jabalia, north of the Strip.
The Executive Director of the organization, Catherine Russell, stressed in a statement published on the X website the need to conduct an immediate investigation into the circumstances of the Israeli occupation targeting its employee in Jabalia.
Russell said: “The weekend witnessed a bloody escalation in attacks in the north of the Strip, as reports indicated the martyrdom of more than 50 children in Jabalia during the past two days.”
Russell warned that all residents of northern Gaza, especially children, are at imminent risk of death due to disease, starvation, and ongoing shelling.
The Director of the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) in northern Gaza was injured when a bomb was dropped from a “Quadcopter” aircraft on a vehicle belonging to the organization in Jabalia, north of the Strip.
The occupation forces continue to escalate their barbaric attacks on the Gaza Strip, especially Jabalia and its camp, as they continue to bomb civilians, blow up their homes, and deprive the residents of aid, food, water, medicine, and fuel by preventing these materials from entering the area.
