Nearly 50 UN buildings and assets impacted by war in Gaza, UNRWA says
From CNN’s Martin Goillandeau
The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) said on Friday that nearly 50 of its buildings and assets across Gaza have been impacted, with some being “directly hit.”
“This includes UN schools and buildings being used as shelters, where UNRWA is currently hosting around 700,000 people,” UNRWA said in a post on social media.

Since October 7, 72 UNRWA staff have been killed in Gaza.
