Delaying a humanitarian pause in the Gaza Strip increases the risk of polio spreading among children, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) has warned.
Nearly 200 United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) workers have been killed in the Gaza Strip since October 2023, the head of the UN agency said.
Following the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip after October 7, 2023, more than 1.9 million Palestinians were displaced from their homes.
He called on countries to increase pressure for the implementation of the court's order and to reconsider their decisions regarding funding the agency, emphasising the urgency of bold actions to prevent famine in Gaza.
US State Department Spokesperson Matthew Miller said: "The United States is extremely troubled by the allegations that twelve UNRWA employees may have been involved in the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack on Israel."
The IDF, said in a statement, that the 646th Brigade conducted the raids and had found rocket building materials in the building.
The shelters managed by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) in central and southern Gaza are severely overcrowded with a record-high number of displaced persons.
The UN Relief Works Agency (UNRWA) said that since the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) created periodic evacuation "corridors" earlier this month, at least 40,000 people have walked from northern Gaza to the besieged enclave's southern regions.
The UN has condemned the incident, saying the fuel and medical equipment were kept strictly for humanitarian purposes.
