UNRWA Commissioner-General on Gaza: Gaza is being obliterated, reduced to a wasteland

From Philippe Lazzarini, the UNRWA Commissioner-General as posted on his official X account (previously known as Twitter)

Gaza is being obliterated, reduced to a wasteland.
Gaza is being emptied from its starving population forced to move into the so called "humanitarian" area of Mawasi.
There is no safe place in Gaza, let alone a humanitarian zone. It is a large and growing camp concentrating hungry Palestinians in despair.
Warnings of famine have fallen on deaf ears.
Will warnings of this deepening catastrophe also fall on deaf ears?
Ceasefire, before it is way too late.
End the impunity before atrocities become the new norm.
