More than two-thirds of Unrwa facilities destroyed by Israel, UN agency says

The United Nations relief and works agency for Palestine Refugees (Unrwa) described on Wednesday the devastation Israel's strikes have imposed on the agency.

"At least 243 Unrwa personnel have been killed, others have been detained and report being tortured. More than two-thirds of Unrwa premises have been damaged or destroyed," UN chief Philippe Lazzarini said.

He said that Unrwa's collapse would threaten the stability of the region.
