The UN agency for Palestinian refugees has said it received reports that rising temperatures in Gaza have led to the death of at least two children, Al Jazeera reports.

Children are paying the highest toll in the ongoing Israeli bombardment, now nearing its seventh month, according to UNRWA.

“What more to endure? Death, hunger, disease, displacement, [and] now living in greenhouses-like structures under scorching heat,” Philippe Lazzarini, UNRWA’s commissioner general said.
