The incident occurred in the center of Gaza on Sunday, according to the media, which indicated that four other people also lost their lives due to the Israeli air strike.
The Israeli army said it was targeting a terrorist, but a “technical error” saw the ammunition moving away.
Maintain child protection
Unicef General manager Catherine Russell noted that the incident came only a few days after several women and children were killed while arguing nutritional supplies.
“” Israeli authorities must urgently review the rules of engagement and ensure full compliance with international humanitarian lawin particular the protection of civilians, including children ”, it wrote In a press release published on X.
The UN has repeatedly deplored the murder of Palestinians in search of food aid in the midst of the disastrous humanitarian situation in Gaza, where food security experts have warned that the whole population, some 2.1 million people, is not enough to eat.
The risk of famine remains, according to Unicef. In June, more than 5,800 children received a diagnosis of malnutrition, including more than 1,000 children suffering from severe acute malnutrition, representing an increase in the fourth consecutive month.
Food stocks available
Meanwhile, “food and medical supplies are waiting in warehouses” just outside the enclave, the UN Palestine refugee agency UNRWA said in A tweet.
He included a quote from one of his health workers who said that “in the past, I have only seen such cases of malnutrition in textbooks and documentaries. Today, I treat them face to face in the health center. ”
UNRWA called for civilians to end and the seat is lifted.
“” Leave the UN, including a UNRWA, do its rescue work“Said the tweet.
The small quantities of aid and critical supplies that have entered Gaza so far are far from sufficient to meet the immense needs, the United Nations Humanitarian Affairs Bureau, Ochhasaid on Monday later.
He asked Israel to enable the urgent entry to aid at scale via all possible routes and corridors.
Health care under attack
OCHA said the health teams continue to undergo some of the worst hostilities, the Ministry of Health Reports that another doctor had been killed in the previous 24 hours.
Although the health system has been decimated and is on the verge of collapse, hospitals continue to respond to the incidents of mass victims as much as they can.
The Israeli authorities have continued to issue travel orders in the midst of hostilities and current destruction, the agency added.
Friday, a travel prescription was given for the Rimal region of Gaza City where some 70,000 people stayed in a dozen travel sites.
Today, more than 86% of the Gaza territory is either under travel orders or located in the Israeli-militarized area.
Annexation of the “well in progress” West Bank
Separately, UNRWA too highlighted The situation of the Palestinians in the occupied West Bank in the context of the war in Gaza.
The head of the agency, Philippe Lazzarini, said on Monday at an international conference in Switzerland that “the annexation was well advanced”.
UNRWA said: “It is not only destruction: it is part of a systematic forced displacement, a violation of international law and a form of collective punishment.”
In January, Israeli forces launched operations in Tulkarm and Jenin in the West Bank, which, according to UNRWA, said before being the most extensive in two decades.
Humanitarian reported last week that operations cause massive destruction and displacement while attacks by Israeli settlers have intensified.
The high levels of violence continue, OCHA signaling that two Palestinian men, including an American national, had been killed near Ramallah on Friday during a settlers’ attack.
Overall, more than 700 settlers’ attacks were recorded in the West Bank in the first half of this year. More than 200 communities were affected, mainly in the governors of Ramallah, Nablus and Hebron
