The UN also called for a minute of silence to mourn the killings of their workers during the Gaza conflict. 

The blue and white flag of the UN was lowered at its offices and missions around the world the day after the organization announced the number of its employees who were killed in Gaza. 

These workers were killed in a bombing that targeted the headquarters of the UN's Development Program in Gaza. 

Since Oct. 7, 23 out of 35 hospitals in Gaza have shut down and 51 out of 72 primary healthcare centers are disabled because of the damage caused by the bombings or the lack of fuel.
