The death toll in an attack on an UNWRA shelter housing thousands of displaced people has risen to 12, according to a statement by Thomas White, deputy humanitarian coordinator for the occupied Palestinian territory.
White said number of missions to reach the dead and injured were denied, without directly saying the attempts had been blocked by Israel. He said UN teams were only able to reach the site in the evening.
The situation in Khan Younis underscores a consistent failure to uphold the fundamental principles of international humanitarian law: distinction, proportionality and precautions in carrying out attacks. This is unacceptable and abhorrent and must stop.
