Geneva, December 23 (RHC)-- The head of the United Nations Palestinian refugee agency, UNRWA, has accused Israel of escalating attacks across the Gaza Strip. 

UNRWA head Philippe Lazzarini said: “Attacks on schools and hospitals have been commonplace.  The world must not become numb.  All wars have rules.  All of those rules have been broken.”

Over the weekend, an Israeli airstrike on the Jabaliya refugee camp killed 12 members of a family, including seven children. 

In a separate attack Friday, an Israel drone struck a residential building in the Nuseirat refugee camp, killing at least eight people. 

Overnight, Israeli drones attacked the so-called safe zone of al-Mawasi, killing at least 11 people and setting tents on fire.
