'Intentional' Israeli attacks behind two-thirds of aid workers' deaths worldwide

"Between November and December 2023, Israeli forces attacked a “clearly marked” #MSF convoy in #Gaza City, fired 20mm cannon rounds at #UNRWA facilities in #Rafah, opened fire on a UN convoy in central Gaza, and shelled the Convent of the Sisters of Mother Teresa (Missionaries of Charity) – a Church listed among Christian facilities US congressional staffers had flagged to Israeli authorities for protection.
In January alone, the Israeli army attacked shelters and residential compounds run by MSF, the #UN, the International Rescue Committee (#IRC), Medical Aid for #Palestinians (MAP), and the offices of the Belgian development agency, Enabel.
Similar attacks continued throughout the year, including the bombing of a World Central Kitchen (WCK) convoy that killed seven aid workers in April. World Food Programme (WFP), #UNICEF, and other humanitarian organizations have also been targeted by Israeli forces on the same coordinates provided by the organizations.
Semler also highlights that #israel-s nonstop attacks against aid workers are accompanied by a similar pattern from White House officials, who have “done nothing but issue words of concern from the briefing podium.”

"Sufyan Jaber Abed Jawwad, a sanitation worker with the UN agency for #Palestinian #refugees, was the first #Unrwa employee killed in the #WestBank in more than a decade. Shot in the early hours of Thursday morning in el Far’a camp, he left behind a wife and five children.
...The killing came days after Israeli airstrikes on a school-turned-shelter in Gaza killed six UNWRA staff members, bringing the total number of agency employees killed in this war to at least 220. Israel’s military said three of the dead Unrwa workers were Hamas employees, without providing evidence."

Five civilians were killed, including three of the WCK workers without any prior warning.
One of the victims is the director of the charity kitchens here in the #Gaza Strip. They are local #Palestinians working for the WCK and they were targeted as they were trying to reach one of the places they were operating in.
This is a sign that Israel is escalating its strikes on aid workers.
In April, seven international aid workers of the WCK were targeted in Deir el-Balah while they were travelling in three vehicles belonging to the organisation, with clear WCK signage attached to the car.
