JERUSALEM> The United Nations says that Gaza is heading towards the biggest humanitarian disaster in history due to Israel’s attack. UN Refugee Agency (UNRWA) Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini said Gaza was being crushed and thousands would die without food, medicine and essentials. He also warned that Gaza is on the verge of total collapse. There are no body bags to store dead bodies. Families are torn apart. UN schools in the south were filled with refugees. A great humanitarian disaster is unfolding before us. Six lakh people have become homeless till Saturday. Three lakh of them are in refugee camps. Israel has intensified the attack since Sunday. The agency’s 13,000 staff in Gaza are now in refugee camps in Rafah. If more refugees arrive, there is not even food to give. Hundreds have only one toilet. He demanded that the embargo should be withdrawn completely before more damage is done. Garbage piles up in Gaza. As there is no drinking water, people are living by drinking salt water. Israel continues to attack health centers in Gaza and the West Bank by destroying health centers. The World Health Organization reported that 48 health facilities in Gaza have been attacked since the war began. 12 health workers were killed. 20 people were injured. 12 staff members of the UN agency for Palestine refugees were also killed. During this period, 63 health centers were attacked in the West Bank. As of Friday, 144 educational institutions in Gaza had been attacked. Read on deshabhimani.com
