As the conflict in Gaza enters its 21st day, the situation has become increasingly dire. Over 8,300 people have lost their lives on both sides, and the humanitarian crisis is escalating rapidly. 😢
More than 610,000 civilians are now seeking refuge in UNRWA facilities, hoping to find safety from the relentless air strikes. Among these sanctuaries, a UNRWA school in Rafah became the site of tragedy on November 25. An air strike severely damaged the school, which was sheltering 4,600 displaced Palestinians. One person was killed, and 44 others, including 9 children, were injured. The line between safe havens and conflict zones is blurring, putting innocent lives at greater risk. 🏫💔
Humanitarian aid groups are struggling to support the massive displaced population. The toll is not limited to civilians alone; 38 UNRWA personnel have lost their lives while conducting relief work in Gaza. Their dedication to helping others in the face of danger highlights the severity of the crisis. 🙏
The international community watches as the situation unfolds, with many calling for immediate action to alleviate the suffering of those caught in the crossfire. The voices of the innocent echo louder than ever, yearning for peace and safety. 🕊️
