The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) are no longer providing services in the Gaza Strip as they are complicit in “mass murder.” This was stated by the Director General of the Ministry of Health of the enclave, Munir Al-Barsh, reports “RIA News”.
“These organizations are complicit in mass murder, they take orders from Netanyahu, not from the UN Secretary General, they left hospitals, aid stations, they even left their headquarters <…> no longer provide services in the Gaza Strip,” Al-Barsh said.
The death toll from Israeli strikes on the enclave has exceeded 11,000. The bombing began on October 7 after an attack by Hamas militants on southern Israel. During the attack, about 1,200 people were killed (initially more than 1,400 were reported dead), and more than 200 were taken hostage by the militants.
On November 9, Al Jazeera, citing UNRWA Commissioner Philippe Lazzarini, reported that 99 commission employees had been killed in Gaza since October 7.
