The United Nations Relief and Works Agency (Unrwa) Commissioner General Phillipe Lazzarini wrote an open letter to staff, saying: "I am constantly hoping that this hell on earth will soon come to an end and that you and your families are safe.
"I keep hoping that I will soon see you and listen to you as you tell me about the pain you have all gone through. I try to brush away the thought that we have already lost 53 colleagues and that many of you have lost relatives and loved ones. May they all rest in peace," he added.
