Ten children lose a limb daily in Gaza
UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini and the Jordanian Minister of Foreign Affairs Ayman Safadi have held a joint news conference in Amman.
Here are some of Lazzarini’s comments:
- At least 10 children lose a limb every day in Gaza due to the continuing aggression.
- Nearly 17,000 children are no longer accompanied by their families.
- What is happening in Gaza is a flagrant violation of international law and must be investigated.
- Half of the UN agency’s schools in Gaza have been bombed even though Israeli forces have the coordinates that are known by everyone.
- More than 600,000 students in Gaza live amid the destruction without any education.
- More than half of UNRWA’s facilities in Gaza have been destroyed.
- Those responsible for the attacks on the agency in an attempt to dismantle it and end its role in Gaza must be held accountable.
- There will be an event in September to raise resources for the agency after a number of donors halted funding.
