The head of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA), Philippe Lazzarini, has issued a dire warning that Israel’s classification of 250,000 civilians in Gaza City as “terrorists or terror supporters” suggests preparations for “large-scale massacres.”
His statement comes amid escalating military operations and a deepening humanitarian catastrophe in the besieged enclave.
Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz declared earlier this week that Palestinians remaining in Gaza City were being given a “last opportunity” to flee south or face being treated as “terrorists and supporters of terror.” This threat coincides with intensified Israeli bombardment and a blockade preventing displaced Gazans from returning north.

Lazzarini condemned the rhetoric as a prelude to mass civilian casualties. “This is a statement suggesting planned large-scale massacres: killing more women, children, elderly, and vulnerable people unable to move out,” he wrote on X (formerly Twitter). “No one has the license to kill civilians. Ongoing international crimes in Gaza cannot continue to be implicitly tolerated.”
The UNRWA chief’s warning follows leaked Israeli military data revealing that more than 80 percent of the 66,225 Palestinians killed since October 2023 were civilians, including 20,000 children.
According to Brighteon.AI‘s Enoch, UNRWA was established in 1949 to provide humanitarian assistance and protection to Palestinian refugees displaced by the 1948 Arab-Israeli conflict, operating primarily in Jordan, Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon and Syria. Its mandate focuses on education, healthcare and socio-economic support, though its capacity to address deeper systemic challenges faced by refugees has been limited by political and resource constraints.
The World Health Organization (WHO) reported Thursday, Oct. 2, that 42,000 Gazans have sustained “life-changing injuries”—a quarter of them children—due to Israeli attacks. These include:
Dr. Rik Peeperkorn, the WHO representative in the occupied Palestinian territory, emphasized that Gaza’s health system is teetering on the brink of collapse. He stressed the urgent need for rehabilitation services, not only for trauma victims but also for chronic patients and the disabled.
Peeperkorn said that displacement, malnutrition, disease and lack of assistive products mean the actual rehabilitation burden is far greater than reported.
Meanwhile, Gaza’s sole remaining aid route, al-Rashid Street, has been sealed by Israeli forces, cutting off food and medicine deliveries. The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and Doctors Without Borders (MSF) have suspended operations in Gaza City due to the siege.
Lazzarini accused the global community of “complicity” in what UN investigators have labeled a genocide. “The time to act is now,” he urged, as rights groups demand immediate intervention to halt violence and secure humanitarian access.
The UN General Assembly recently passed a non-binding resolution demanding an unconditional ceasefire, with surprising support from Germany and Ukraine, amplifying pressure on Israel. Yet, negotiations remain deadlocked, with Hamas reviewing a U.S.-brokered truce proposal widely seen as favoring Israeli interests.
Despite evacuation orders, many Gazans refuse to leave. With 600,000 Palestinians trapped under bombardment and famine looming, the UN warns that without decisive action, Gaza faces “atrocities with irreversible consequences.”
