The attack, which occurred in a densely-populated area of Gaza City, involved missile strikes that left a significant impact on the refugee camp. Subsequent bombings exacerbated the damage in the camp, raising alarms within the UN.
In a statement on X, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights expressed worries about the extensive civilian casualties and the scale of destruction resulting from the israeli airstrikes on Jabalia refugee camp. This has prompted concerns about the possibility of these attacks being deemed as disproportionate and potentially constituting war crimes.
The UN's response follows a wave of condemnation from various officials within the organization who expressed shock and horror at the strikes on Jabalia, Gaza’s largest refugee camp. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, through his spokesman Stephane Dujarric, expressed dismay over the escalating violence in Gaza, particularly highlighting the killing of Palestinian civilians, including women and children, in Israeli air strikes in residential areas of the densely populated Jabalia refugee camp.
UNICEF, the UN's children’s agency, described the attacks as "horrific and appalling." It was noted that while it was too early to confirm the exact number of children among the deceased in Jabalia, the organization highlighted that more than 3,500 children have been killed since October 7. (ILKHA)
