UNRWA: Over 50 our Staff abused, used as human shields by Israeli forces
2025-04-30
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] The UN agency for Paleostinian refugees, UNRWA, on Tuesday said more than 50 of its staff in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
were abused and used as human shields while in Israeli military detention.

''Since the start of the war in October 2023, over 50 UNRWA staff, among them teachers, doctors, social workers, have been detained and abused,'' UNRWA head Philippe Lazzarini wrote on X.

''They have been treated in the most shocking & inhumane way. They reported being beaten and used as human shields.''

He noted that many of them were forced to make forced confessions under duress.

Lazzarini described what happened as ''horrific and shocking,'' calling for an international investigation and holding accountable those responsible for these violations and crimes committed against civilians, which violate international law in the Gaza Strip.

Lazzarini also indicated that thousands of tons of humanitarian aid are ready to enter Gaza, but the closure of the crossings by the occupation authorities is preventing this, leading to the spoilage of essential supplies amid the worsening hunger crisis.

He said that there are approximately 3,000 trucks loaded with aid awaiting entry, calling for the immediate lifting of the blockade to ensure that aid reaches those in need.
