“Among those killed was the manager of the UNRWA shelter and other team members providing assistance to displaced people,” the refugee agency said in a statement on social media. “No one is safe in Gaza. No one is spared.”
On Tuesday, at least 19 people were killed in an overnight Israeli strike in the designated humanitarian zone in southern Gaza, the Hamas-run health ministry said.
In Turkey on Saturday, mourners were preparing for the funeral of Aysenur Ezgi Eygi, a 26-year-old Turkish-American activist who the Israeli military says was likely shot “indirectly and unintentionally” by Israeli forces in the West Bank on Sept. 6.
Her family have said they are “deeply offended by the suggestion that her killing by a trained sniper was in any way unintentional,” and called for an investigation by the U.S. into her death.
Turkey has already said it would conduct its own investigation.
More than 40,000 people have been killed in Gaza throughout the course of the war, according to health officials.
