UN official promises staff in Gaza ‘not going to back down’ after 6 killed in Israeli strike
William Deere, an UNRWA official based in Washington, DC, says Israel’s war on Gaza “has absolutely no bottom to it” after six UN workers were among 18 killed at a shelter for war-displaced Palestinians.
“Six colleagues lost today, that brings the death toll among UNRWA staff in this conflict to 220, which is the highest ever in United Nations history,” Deere told Al Jazeera. “Our staff are on the front lines, and they’re not going to back down, they’re not going to stop doing their job.”
