The UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, said that five of its staff have been confirmed killed in Gaza in the past few days, bringing the death toll to 284. “They were teachers, doctors and nurses: serving the most vulnerable,” the agency’s head Philippe Lazzarini said on X. He said that Israeli bombardment continues from air and sea for the third day in Gaza. “We are fearing that the worst is yet to come given the ongoing ground invasion separating the north from the south,” he added.
