UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres commented on the killing of six UNRWA workers in the Gaza Strip by IDF forces, and said that "what is happening there is completely unacceptable.
A school that became a shelter for about 12,000 people was damaged today by Israeli airstrikes again."
Israel's ambassador to the UN Danny Danon responded: "What is 'unacceptable' is the fact that the UN Secretary General refuses to recognize reality and continues to distort it. Terrorists who operate out of a civilian structure that was used by UNRWA in the past are not 'innocent actors'."
