The Israeli military has identified the man as Mohammad Abu Hasna, who they say was a Hamas militant responsible for providing intelligence to the group on Israeli troop positions and taking control of humanitarian aid to distribute to Hamas fighters.The United Nations has continued to condemn the strike on the UNRWA office, spokesman Stephane Dujarric saying the agency should never be a target in the hostilities.
A 35-year-old suspect has already been arrested over the attack, with police confirming they are seeking others who they also believe to have been involved.German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has defended his refusal to send long-range cruise missiles to Ukraine, as the besieged country continues to call for support from its Western allies.
But Mr Scholz says Germany remains the second biggest supplier of weapons to Ukraine after the United States, and that this was a show of "great trust"."From my point of view, this is a very long-range weapon. Given the significance of not losing control over targets, this weapon could not be used without the deployment of German soldiers. I reject that.
