United Nations, August 19 (RHC)-- United Nations chief, Antonio Guterres, says that the humanitarian situation in Gaza is "a moral stain on us all."  Guterres delivered his comments in a statement read out by his chief of staff Courtenay Rattray.

The Gaza Civil Defense says it has lost dozens of its employees ever since the Israeli military launched its relentless aerial and ground offensives across the besieged coastal terror in early October last year.

The World Central Kitchen (WCK) said earlier this month one of its Palestinian aid workers had been killed in Gaza, marking another loss for the organization four months after an Israeli airstrike killed seven of its team members.

For his part, the head of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees says the death toll exacted on the agency’s staff since the onset of the Israeli war on Gaza amounts to the largest in the world body’s history.

The UN agency for Palestinian refugees, says the death toll exacted on the agency’s staff since the onset of the Israeli regime’s ongoing genocidal war on Gaza amounts to the largest in the world body’s history.

At least 207 UNRWA employees have been killed since the start of the Israeli military aggression in the besieged Gaza Strip.

Israel has also repeatedly attacked Gaza's schools, hospitals universities, and civilian infrastructure.

The charity group Oxfam says Israel has been systematically using water as a weapon of war against Palestinians in Gaza, showing disregard for human life and violating international law.
