International Committee of the Red Cross President Mirjana Spoljaric has said there is “no excuse for what is happening in Gaza”.

“The scale of human suffering and the stripping of human dignity have long exceeded every acceptable standard — both legal and moral.”

Spoljaric said the ICRC has more than 350 staff in Gaza, “many of whom are also struggling to find enough food and clean water”.
