In a sternly-worded statement released today, Egypt has vehemently condemned the Israeli forces for the alarming bombing of Al-Fakhoura School, affiliated with United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), resulting in numerous casualties and injuries among the Palestinian population. This incident adds to a series of Israeli violations against civilians in the Gaza Strip.
Describing the attack on Al-Fakhoura School, a sanctuary for hundreds of displaced Palestinians, as another war crime, Egypt called for a thorough investigation and accountability for those responsible. The deliberate assault is viewed not only as an affront to the UN but also as a violation of its humanitarian objectives.
Egypt has reiterated its appeal to influential international entities and the Security Council, urging immediate intervention to halt the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip.
Egypt called for the implementation of an urgent and unconditional ceasefire, emphasizing the imperative need for providing essential protection to Palestinian civilians caught in the crossfire.
According to UN figures, some 1.6 million people have been displaced inside the Gaza Strip by six weeks of fighting.
