The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) reported that the number of humanitarian workers who have lost their lives in the Gaza Strip since the onset of the Israeli occupation's military actions has reached 341.
The organization has expressed grave concern over the repeated displacement of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, highlighting the critical shortages of essential resources such as food and water.
Stephane Dujarric, spokesperson for the UN Secretary-General, emphasized during a recent press briefing that relief workers continue to put their lives on the line to provide necessary assistance to those in need.
"Israeli air strikes killed four humanitarian workers three from World Central Kitchen and one from Save the Children raising the total number of aid workers killed since October of last year to 341,” he said.
"our humanitarian partners are also warning that local food systems have been devastated by military ground operations, the bombardment of civilian areas and the presence of unexploded ordnance,” he added.
