ALBAWABA- Amid Israel's ongoing war on Gaza, 12 members of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) have been killed by Israeli airstrikes.

 The strikes deliberately hit humanitarian camps, UNRWA-run schools, hospitals, and aid centers, putting more than 100,000 Palestinian residents seeking shelter at these locations at risk. 

This not only increases the strain on the humanitarian organization but also poses significant threats to the safety of its workers in Gaza.
