A 14-year-old boy was seriously injured and sustained limb amputations after opening a booby-trapped can of food found while looking for his belongings in his house that had been shelled by Israeli forces in Khan Younis,” the UN aid coordination office (OCHA) said, citing the Strip’s authorities.
The young victim who reportedly sustained life-changing injuries on Monday is just one of “many people recently injured” from supplies rigged with hidden explosive charges, OCHA said in its latest update on the emergency.
UN mine action experts have estimated that some 7,500 tonnes of unexploded ordnance could be “scattered” throughout Gaza which could take up to 14 years to clear. To mitigate the risk for civilians and aid teams in the meantime, the UN Mine Action Service, UNMAS, has issued increasingly urgent appeals for assistance from the international community to remove explosive remnants of war.

BUT: It seems that the UN deleted the article.

I’m sorry, seems that you can’t trust the UN news?

Yup. That’s what people generally do. If you get custom special domains you’ll use it for new stuff and the old stuff will continue on old patterns
