A top UN official said on Saturday that the war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza was staining humanity, as the conflict in the besieged territory moves into its 100th day.
"The massive death, destruction, displacement, hunger, loss and grief of the last 100 days are staining our shared humanity," the head of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, Philippe Lazzarini, said in a statement as he visited the Gaza Strip, according to AFP.
"It's been 100 days since the devastating war started, killing and displacing people in Gaza, following the horrific attacks that Hamas and other groups carried out against people in Israel. It's been 100 days of ordeal and anxiety for hostages and their families."
