RAFAH, Apr 15: The UN on Monday said nearly 400,000 Palestinians have been displaced in the Gaza Strip since Israel shattered the recent ceasefire deal, with no arrangements made for civilian safety.
"Our humanitarian colleagues tell us that across Gaza, Israeli attacks continue unabated, causing systematic, large scale civilian casualties," UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said at a news conference.
The people in Gaza "including many children, are being killed, injured and maimed for life," Dujarric said.
"Survivors across Gaza are being displaced repeatedly and forced into an ever shrinking space where their basic needs just cannot be met," he added.
"Overall, we estimate that nearly 400,000 people have been displaced yet again since the breakdown of the ceasefire. That's 18% of all Palestinians in Gaza," he said.
Dujarric also emphasized that "no arrangements to secure their safety and survival have been made - a responsibility that falls on Israel as the occupying power." �"AGENCIES
