UN calls for protection of civilians in Gaza amid Israeli attacks

The United Nations has called for heightened protection of civilians in Gaza following Israeli attacks, with a spokesperson noting that three UN warehouses were damaged in an Israeli air strike on Sunday, one of which was significantly affected. During a press conference on Monday, the spokesperson emphasized the importance of safeguarding civilians and civilian infrastructure, including humanitarian facilities, from becoming targets of military operations.

Additionally, the UN called for increased aid to prevent further malnutrition among children, pointing out that Israel has not provided the agreed-upon amount of aid since a ceasefire with Hamas in October.
