GAZA, Oct. 7 (Xinhua) -- The UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) condemned on Sunday in an official statement the Palestinian refugees' fatalities in eastern Gaza Strip.

UNRWA said in an emailed press statement that it also deplored the deteriorating humanitarian crisis in the impoverished coastal enclave of the Gaza Strip.

"On Sept. 28, violence in Gaza led to the death of seven Palestinians including two children, one of whom was a UNRWA student," the statement said.

"Between March 31 and Sept. 30, UNRWA's 22 health centers across the Gaza Strip have provided 4,104 consultations for injuries sustained in the protests, more than 770 of which related to children," it added.

"The majority of these (86%) have suffered from gunshot injuries, usually resulting in serious bodily harm," UNRWA said.

Gaza Health Ministry said that 198 Palestinians were killed and 22,000 injured since March 30. The Palestinians have been organizing weekly protests in eastern Gaza Strip close to the border with Israel.

UNRWA said that in recent months, the deepening humanitarian crisis has further ravaged the Gaza Strip.

"We are witnessing an extreme phase in Gaza, as living conditions which are already intolerable, continue deteriorating," UNRWA said.

It called on all parties "to take actions to ensure prevention of further violence in the context of a just and lasting solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict."
