UNRWA Commissioner-General: The Middle East has become the deadliest place in the world

From Philippe Lazzarini, the UNRWA Commissioner-General as posted on his official X account.

The Middle East has become the deadliest place in the world:

- to be a medical worker
- ⁠to be a humanitarian
- ⁠to be a UN team member
- ⁠to be a journalist

And one of the deadliest to be a civilian.

This cannot be normalised. International humanitarian law matters. Accountability matters.
