Muhannad Hadi, the UN humanitarian coordinator for the occupied Palestinian territory, has called for accountability after Israeli forces killed four more humanitarian workers in Gaza last week, Al Jazeera reports.

“Humanitarian workers in Gaza represent the last lifeline for over two million Palestinians who are enduring unimaginable conditions,” Hadi said, noting that more than 330 humanitarian workers have been killed in the Gaza Strip since October 2023.

“Their work is not just critical; it is indispensable,” he said.
