This UNRWA school in Gaza City was hit yesterday by an Israeli airstrike, resulting in the tragic killing of several people and injuries to many others.
Schools, which should be safe places for displaced families in #Gaza, continue to be devastated by the ongoing war.
How many more people will be killed senselessly.

Vulnerable communities, who often rely on agriculture, fishing, and livestock - and who contribute the least to the crisis - will continue to bear the brunt of the impacts. #COP29
The climate crisis is a hunger crisis.

Mahdia, displaced for the 8th time, bakes bread to feed her 6 children in a crowded UNRWA shelter in Khan Younis. The flour shortage threatens their survival, and she fears for the future.
"Without UNRWA, we face extinction," she says.
As famine looms, displaced families in #Gaza urgently need support. UNRWA’s operations are key to meet the essential needs of those who have lost everything.
