United Nations, August 14 (RHC)--Palestine’s UN envoy Riyad Mansour addressed an emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) on Tuesday.  Mansour said that “Israel does not care about your condemnations” over the mass killing of civilians and humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza.

At the same meeting in New York City, the UN’s humanitarian agency, the UNRWA, told the UNSC that the recent attack on a Gaza City school, which killed at least 100 people, was “far from an isolated incident” and that Israeli strikes on schools are “occurring with increasing frequency.”

Israel’s military orders Palestinians to immediately leave more areas of war-battered Khan Younis as it prepares to “act forcefully.”

Meanwhile, the U.S. has approved more than $20 billion in new weapons sales to Israel despite calls to stop arms deliveries amid the huge Palestinian civilian death toll due to Israel’s genocidal war of aggression on Gaza.

At least 39,929 people have been killed and 92,240 wounded in Israel’s war on Gaza. An estimated 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the Hamas-led attacks on October 7 and more than 200 were taken captive.
