The Commissioner of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), Philippe Lazzarini, said on Friday, that Israel has killed more than 150 Palestinian children in the West Bank, since the start of the ongoing Israeli war on the Gaza Strip on October 7.

Lazzarini quoted UNICEF’s figures as confirming that more than 150 Palestinian children were killed in the West Bank since the war started on October 7.

He pointed out that UNRWA has suspended its services to the communities in several West Bank camps due to the Israeli military operation.

Tens of thousands of people in four refugee camps have been impacted by this operation, including through the destruction of public and private infrastructure, he added.
