UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini expressed deep concern over the safety and well-being of his staff in Gaza following strikes in Tal al-Sultan in the early hours of Tuesday. Lazzarini reported that his staff are feeling 'terrified' and are in the process of packing up and relocating due to the escalating violence.
The main offices of the United Nations in Gaza are situated in the Tal al-Sultan area, making it challenging for most staff members to commute to work amidst the ongoing hostilities. Lazzarini highlighted the critical situation, stating that UNRWA is running out of essential medical supplies and basic medicines, further exacerbating the already dire humanitarian crisis in the region.
