The United Nations Human Rights Office said on Friday that the Israeli attack on Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip “cannot be allowed to happen.”

The United Nations Human Rights Office added that an Israeli invasion of the border city of Rafah cannot be allowed to occur, because it will cause massive loss of life.

The official spokesman for the United Nations Human Rights Office, Jeremy Lawrence, confirmed : “If Israel launches its military attack on Rafah, where 1.5 million people have been displaced in deplorable and inhumane conditions, any ground attack on Rafah will cause massive loss of life, and will increase "at the risk of committing more brutal crimes."
