China News Service, May 18. According to the United Nations website, the United Nations Secretary-General's spokesman Dujarric said on the 17th that as the Palestinian-Israeli conflict continues, the United Nations has received reports of a large number of Palestinians being displaced, and nearly 40,000 people have applied for UN asylum. .
According to reports, Dujarric said, "More than 38,000 displaced people have now sought shelter in 48 schools run by UN agencies. More than 2,500 people have been made homeless because their homes were destroyed in air strikes."
Dujarric said that so far, a total of 41 educational facilities in Gaza have been damaged in the conflict, including schools, two kindergartens and a higher education institution.
At present, the Palestinian death toll caused by Israeli air strikes has reached 218, including 58 children. Suzy Esquintana, a 6-year-old girl, was trapped under the rubble for seven hours and lost her mother and four siblings as many homes in the Gaza Strip were implicated in the fighting.
Dujarric said the United Nations humanitarian coordinator in Gaza, Hastings, has called on Israeli authorities and Palestinian armed groups to immediately allow the United Nations and humanitarian partners to deliver fuel, food, medical supplies and aid workers to Gaza.
At present, the United Nations is continuing to actively communicate with all parties to achieve an immediate ceasefire. UN Secretary-General António Guterres called a day earlier that "the conflict must stop. It must stop now." He also expressed alarm at the high number of Palestinian civilians, including women and children, caused by Israel's attack on Gaza, as well as rockets fired from Gaza. We deplore the Israeli casualties caused by the bomb.
