No safe zones in Gaza, laments UN

Gaza, Dec 6:

The United Nations says there are no safe zones in Gaza including shelters flying the UN flag, UN Spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said on Tuesday.

“There are no UN designated safe zones in Gaza. I think that all my senior colleagues have been very clear, including the Secretary-General saying there are no safe places in Gaza,” Dujarric told a briefing. “There are shelters that fly the UN flag… But we have seen since the beginning of the conflict that those places that fly the UN flag are not safe either.”

Dujarric was answering a question regarding the US State Department Spokesperson’s Matthew Miller comment during a briefing that people in Gaza should go to UN-designated stores that are listed on Israeli lists as “deconfliction zones that should not be the target of military campaigns.”
