UN aid warehouse 'hit' in Gaza's Rafah, scores injured

The United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees said one of its aid warehouses in the war-ravaged Gaza Strip was "hit" on Wednesday, wounding scores of people.

"We can confirm that an UNRWA warehouse/distribution centre in Rafah (southern Gaza) has been hit," agency spokeswoman Juliette Touma told AFP, adding there were "scores injured".

The health ministry in Hamas-run Gaza said four people were killed in the "bombing of the warehouse".
