Six staff members with the UN agency that assists Palestine refugees, UNRWA, were killed in Gaza on Wednesday when two Israeli airstrikes hit a school-turned-shelter and its surroundings.

'This is the highest death toll among our staff in a single incident,' UNRWA said in a post on the social media platform X, formerly Twitter.
