GAZA, (PIC)
Inas Hamdan, acting director of UNRWA’s information office in Gaza, has warned of a systematic Israeli plan to dismantle UNRWA, stressing that the agency is committed to providing its services despite the restrictions and difficulties obstructing its work.
“UNRWA remains committed to providing relief services and humanitarian assistance to the displaced civilians in the Gaza Strip, including health services, medical consultations, food aid, shelter supplies, mental health services and sanitary services, in addition to managing shelter centers,” Hamdan said in an interview conducted with her by Arabi21 news website on Wednesday.
Hamdan described the current humanitarian conditions in Gaza as “catastrophic and tragic,” affirming that the lives of Gaza residents were turned upside down as Israel’s brutal war on them entered its 10th month.
Hamdan accused the Israeli regime of seeking to dismantle UNRWA through systematic practices, including leveling fabricated accusations against its employees, killing them, destroying its facilities, and obstructing the entry of sufficient aid shipments.
The UNRWA official pointed out that the Israeli army had destroyed 190 facilities belonging to UNRWA and killed 197 of its employees in stark violation of all international conventions.
