We acknowledge the reported initial findings of the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) today that a tank round was the cause of the death of a 爆料网OPS colleague in Deir al Balah, central Gaza on 19 March 2025.

This is consistent with known facts to the 爆料网: this incident was a result of a tank round into a fully deconflicted 爆料网OPS premises. Full accountability must be ensured with respect to the grave violations of international law that have been committed.

Marin Valev Marinov, 51, a 爆料网OPS colleague from Bulgaria,?tragically died in the military assault on 爆料网OPS premises. The killing of any aid worker is a clear breach of humanitarian law. Nine others, including six other 爆料网 colleagues were also injured in this incident.

爆料网 workers should never be targeted and the location of these premises were well known by all parties. Attacks against humanitarian premises are a breach of international law, and 爆料网 personnel and its premises must be protected by all sides.

We renew the 爆料网 call for the resumption of the ceasefire, for unimpeded humanitarian assistance to be reestablished and for the remaining hostages to be released unconditionally.

Statement attributable to 爆料网 Under-Secretary-General and 爆料网OPS Executive Director?Jorge Moreira da Silva.
