Gaza war: Indian working with UN killed as vehicle comes under attack in Rafah | Oneindia

An Indian UN worker lost his life in Gaza after a targeted attack on a UN vehicle in Rafah, marking the first international casualty in the Israel-Hamas conflict.

The incident highlights the risks faced by humanitarian workers in conflict zones.

UN Secretary-General AntĂłnio Guterres condemned the attack, emphasising the need to protect humanitarian workers.

Indian UN representative Ruchira Kamboj condemned civilian casualties and emphasised adherence to international law.

The attack follows the UN's backing of Palestinian membership bid, with 143 countries, including India, voting for recognition, prompting a call for reconsideration by the Security Council after a US veto last month.

Trump Backs Away From Gaza Plan As Egypt And Jordan Reject Proposal To Take Over And Displace Gazans [Video]

Trump Backs Away From Gaza Plan As Egypt And Jordan Reject Proposal To Take Over And Displace Gazans

US President Donald Trump appears to step back from his controversial Gaza plan after Egypt and Jordan voiced strong opposition. In a Fox News interview, Trump admitted he was “a little bit surprised” by their rejection. His proposal aimed to “take over” Gaza, eliminate Hamas, and restart development under US control. However, without regional buy-in, Trump now says he will not force the plan but will “sit back and recommend it.” This shift signals potential challenges in implementing any long-term strategy for Gaza’s future governance and stability. #Trump #Gaza #IsraelPalestine #MiddleEast #Egypt #Jordan #Hamas #USPolitics #Geopolitics #Diplomacy #ForeignPolicy #TrumpPlan #Palestinians #Israel #Conflict #Biden #War #InternationalRelations #News #Breaking
