A senior United Nations official announced on Sunday that the results of investigating the Israeli bombing on the UN headquarters in the Gaza Strip will be declared very soon.
Commissioner General of UNRAW Pierre Krahenbuhl made the announcement at an inauguration ceremony of rebuilding an UNRWA school in the village of Khuza'a, east of the southern Gaza Strip city of Khan Younis.
"The results of the UN enquiry, formed by Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, to probe the bombardment of the UN buildings in the Gaza Strip during the last Israeli war on Gaza will be declared very soon," said Krahenbuhl.
The high-ranking senior UN official didn't give a specific date for declaring the results, but said "attacking schools and other civilian places which were not involved in any military action is not accepted at all."
"It is immoral and can never be accepted by the international law," he said, adding that "83 educational structures and 10 medical clinics belonging to UNRWA were either directly or indirectly damaged."
In early November, Ban Ki-moon announced that the UN formed an inquiry committee to investigate the Israeli targeting of UN buildings during the Israeli military offensive waged on the Gaza Strip last summer.
During the 50-day offensive, the Israeli army bombed directly three UNRWA schools that were sheltering displaced families who escaped from their homes during the Israeli army ground operation.
Meanwhile, the senior UN official called on the donors to fulfill their pledges towards the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip, saying "if this fulfillment isn't done, this means that there will be more rage and more despair in Gaza."
There are tens of thousands of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip "are still homeless," said Ban Ki-moon, adding that "it is impossible to halt humanitarian aid or delay it especially when we see this tragic reality in Gaza."
