.@UNDP/@UN office in Gaza was shelled last night, with reports of deaths & injured among those who sought safety in our compound. This is wrong on every count. Civilians, civilian infrastructure & the inviolability of UN facilities must be always protected https://t.co/3yg3AlGDXD

Today we have lost contact with our @UNDP colleagues in #Gaza. I am extremely concerned for them & their families.
Sharing our colleague, Shahd‘s account of the trauma & suffering they have been experiencing for 3 weeks.
@UN call for a humanitarian ceasefire must be respected.
“When I wake up tomorrow, I want this to end, so we can return to the sanctuary of our home.”
For the past 17 days, our colleague Shahd and her children have been on a harrowing journey to protect themselves from the shelling in #Gaza.
Her story: https://t.co/fPBX1VDVN1
My friend's son ran to her and gave her those sweets and love bracelet. When she asked what they were for, he said: it is because the war is over. No child should go through such horror, nor should they know what war is. They should be celebrating life and thriving. @ShSwerki
