UNRWA: 30 Palestinians killed in airstrikes in the last 24 hours
Gaza, February 2 (Hibya) - The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) said that despite the ongoing ceasefire in Gaza, casualties have occurred in airstrikes and fear and uncertainty continue in the region.
UNRWA carried out assessments of the current situation in Gaza.
UNRWA official Sam Rose told BBC News: “We are seeing conflicting dynamics here. On the one hand, there is positive progress with the reopening of the Rafah crossing, but in the last 24 hours, 30 Palestinians were killed in airstrikes carried out during the ceasefire.”
Stressing that fear and uncertainty persist for civilians living in Gaza, Rose added: “Access remains limited, concerns over the protection of civilians continue, and humanitarian needs have reached an extremely critical level due to operational constraints.”
The UNRWA official stated that despite all challenges, operations on the ground are continuing, saying: “We continue to deliver life-saving humanitarian assistance.”
