On December 31, the Israeli military carried out another round of airstrikes in the central Gaza Strip, this time killing at least 35 people. This is the latest escalation of the long-standing conflict between Israel and Palestine, which has brought great destruction and humanitarian crisis to the region.
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict has so far killed at least 21,822 Palestinians and displaced nearly 2 million**, or about 85 percent of the population of the Gaza Strip. Innocent civilians have been seriously harmed, and people face serious threats to their safety and livelihood.
The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) said in a statement that 180 UN facilities have been bombed by the Israeli military, resulting in at least 300 deaths. The destruction of these facilities has severely hampered aid and relief efforts, further exacerbating the humanitarian crisis.
According to the latest statistics, the destruction of the Gaza Strip has left 21,822 people dead, while thousands more have been injured, including women and children. These figures are staggering and illustrate the extreme brutality and humanitarian crisis of this conflict.
Nearly 2 million people have been forced to flee their homes as a result of the conflict, leaving them without shelter and living infrastructure. This crisis is not just a conflict, but a humanitarian catastrophe involving civilian life and fundamental rights.
The Israeli military's bombing campaign not only caused a large number of people**, but also damaged the infrastructure of the Gaza Strip, including medical facilities, schools, and water and electricity facilities. This has exacerbated the humanitarian crisis and urgently requires the attention and intervention of the international community.
The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) said in a statement that 180 UN facilities had been destroyed in the Israeli military's bombing. The destruction of these facilities, which included relief centres, health points and schools, had affected the ability to provide humanitarian assistance and support.
At least 300 people were killed and hundreds injured as a result of the bombing of these UN facilities, UNRWA reported. Such attacks on aid facilities constitute a grave violation of international humanitarian law and human rights and pose a serious threat to the safety and survival of civilians.
UNRWA further warned that the humanitarian situation has deteriorated further due to the destruction of facilities, as well as the severity of human beings. This is not just an act of war, but a direct violation of the right of Palestinian civilians to live, and it urgently requires action by the international community to contain the deterioration of the situation.
