The United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees says one of its aid warehouses in the war-ravaged Gaza Strip was “hit” today, wounding scores of people.
“We can confirm that an UNRWA warehouse/distribution center in Rafah has been hit,” agency spokeswoman Juliette Touma tells AFP, adding there are “scores injured.”
The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry claims that four people were killed in the “bombing of the warehouse.”
The IDF did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the purported strike.
