Aid groups working in Gaza say Israeli attacks killed at least 20 of their staff in the past month

Israeli air attacks on Gaza have killed at least 20 aid workers in the period between October 10 and November 13, according to charity organisations working in the enclave.

“Staff were killed in their homes, in displacement camps and while delivering life-saving aid”, the groups said in a new report according to Al Jazeera.

“Many aid workers lost close family members and relatives”.

These include four engineers and workers with an Oxfam partner, who were killed on October 19 while on their way to repair water infrastructure in Khuza’a, east of Khan Younis.

“Despite prior coordination with Israeli authorities, their clearly-marked vehicle was attacked”, the report said.
