The Israel armed forces have continually perpetuated their aggression on the Gaza Strip for seven months. In the latest assault, four additional Palestinians were killed, bringing the complete loss of life to 37,598.
Worldwide news agencies report that this isn’t the first time Israeli forces have targeted a United Nations Relief and Works Agency center in Gaza. There were scores of people here while the Israel Air Force was striking down.
A representative from UNRWA stated that some individuals were injured and sent to hospital following Israel’Israel’st. Four of them perished during medical treatment, while others remain critically ill. Nonetheless, it was not indicated whether those who lost their lives were workers of UNRWA or Gazans who had gathered for help.
Let it be noted that this is not the first time such an attack has taken place at a UNRWA facility. The IDF before had targeted Palestinian refugees waiting for aid amongst themselves. Over 2000 people died and sustained injuries in these tragic incidents. It, however, remains defiant despite condemnation by world leaders and human rights organizations.
Global Outcry Over Gaza Violence
These continued attacks have elicited strong criticism from all over the world. Global leaders, together with human rights activists, are repeatedly condemning this violence as well as calling for immediate ceasefires. Despite this, things are getting worse in Gaza. Whereby there exists a severe problem regarding the humanitarian crisis caused by a long-lasting conflict.
Through constant violent activities. Palestinians inside Gaza are affected immensely as it experiences widespread destruction alongside a lack of necessary services. Medical care accessibility, food, and clean water have become increasingly difficult to reach residents living in the Gaza Strip. Calls continue coming from different corners of the universe demanding cessation of hostilities coupled with measures formulated for protection purposes regarding civilians.
As long as fighting persists, finding a peaceful solution becomes more urgent than ever. To avoid further loss of life and relieve suffering among people in Gaza. The international community should step up its intervention for mediation and lasting peace within the region.
