Members of Israeli public ‘don’t see what you see abroad’: Analysis
Funerals have taken place for six UN employees killed in an Israeli strike on a school in al Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza.
The facility was being used as a shelter, housing around 12,000 displaced Palestinians
The European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell says he is “outraged” by the killing of six UNRWA staff after an Israeli strike on the al-Jaouni school in central Gaza.
The EU’s top diplomat said the disregard of the basic principles of international humanitarian law, especially the protection of civilians, cannot and should not be accepted by the international community.
Germany has joined a growing list of states speaking out against the killing of six UN staff at a school in central Gaza that Israel bombed.
In a statement, Germany’s Federal Foreign Office said, “Humanitarian aid workers must never be victims of rockets … the death of six UNRWA staff at a school in Nuseirat is totally unacceptable … Israel’s army has a responsibility to protect UN staff and aid workers.”
Sam Rose is the senior deputy director of UNRWA affairs in Gaza.
He says UNRWA employees are devastated and feel nowhere in Gaza is safe.
Alon Liel, former director general of Israel’s Foreign Ministry, says condemnation by the UN and international media coverage is not affecting the Israeli government’s decision-making regarding its war on Gaza.
