Israeli military takes responsibility for attack on U.N. house in Gaza

A Israeli tank fire last month targeted a United Nations guesthouse in Gaza, killing Bulgarian aid worker Marin Marinov and injuring others. Despite initial denials from Israel's military, evidence linked the attack to Israeli forces, prompting the U.N.'s temporary evacuation of 30 staffers—nearly a third of its international team in Gaza. The incident underscores escalating safety concerns and highlights ongoing humanitarian challenges in Gaza amid an Israel-backed blockade that aid groups warn violates international law.
