UN says Israeli strike killed six of its Gaza staff | BBC News

The UN agency for Palestinian refugees (Unrwa) says six of its employees have been killed in an Israeli air strike on a school it runs in central Gaza.

Gaza's Hamas-run Civil Defence agency said a total of 18 people were killed in Wednesday’s strike on al-Jaouni school in Nuseirat refugee camp, which is being used as a shelter by thousands of displaced Palestinians.
Israel's military said it carried out a “precise strike on terrorists” planning attacks from the school, and that it had taken measures to avoid harm to civilians.
UN Secretary General António Guterres condemned the strike, saying: “What’s happening in Gaza is totally unacceptable".

Israel just investigated itself again & came to the conclusion that it was an accident because there was no conceivable way of just blaming Hamas.

If after 11 months you can still defend this behaviour you are beyond help. You need to take a look in the mirror and ask what have i become.

For god sakes! Israel says commannd centres are hiding under tents, in olive trees, in beds, on bicycles and probaby in toilets!!

Can't believe anything the BBC or un say

[ARoo-tru]

Gaza doesn't have tanks, missile detectors & other equipment - can the UN set up a missile detecting system to warn Palestinians and UN aid workers of an air strike. This is a massacre, not a war - gone far past retaliation, 40, 000 lives lost.

Seems like a failure of reporting to not add that only a handful were fired.. out of over ten thousand employees.

Netanyahu plays his allies like a violin. Free the World of this man.

Wasn’t the UN staff shown to be tied to Hamas?

I've been kicked out 109 properties over 1000 times. The landlords are persecuting me and the neighbors make me react.
People say I might be the problem but they are anti-me.
Everyone agree I'm the victim, if you don't I'll call you hateful?

This UN Secretary General was silent when UN Agency workers were identified among the attackers of October 7. Why is he upset now that the mixup has led to this?

[peteraudley]

Any death is a shame but any lost soul is also a shame . Its been apparent for a while that the UN have sided with the terrorist group hamas so why were they there and what were they teaching them !? Rip to all souls even the misguided ❤

Ban the flying of the hamas flag in the uk!

Fascism is a authoritarian, political ideology and movement,
characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy,
militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy,
subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race,
and strong regimentation of society and the economy.

What you call "strike" are in fact "terrorist attacks"

[BuduRepiya-rz]

They are not un workers but hamas workers. Report honestly

[Hogarthnp]

What on earth is the world coming too.Its ridiculous, grown men holding grudges lasting thousands of years .I say men cos women and children are getting caught up in this carnage .Growing up to hate fellow human beings .I honestly beleive your ppl in palatine and Israel are good ppl .We want to visit you and embrace you.❤

Someone died in a war zone....who knew.

[mabhodlelajj]

Condemn Amas for using civilians as human shield, UN must stop collaborating with Amas, using civilian places for their terror purposes... Guteres and His UN and Amas are responsible for death of civilians there.

Never start a war you cannot win, never provide your UN-UNRWA facilities as a military command centre for your promoters.
