It has been decided to relocate 20 Sri Lankan families who are currently in conflict areas in Gaza and Israel.
That is due to the possibility of further escalation of violence between Israeli forces and Hamas.
In the meantime, foreign media reports that the number of people killed by Israel's airstrikes on the Gaza Strip has risen to 1,900.
The media reports indicate that 60 percent of them are women and children.
Accordingly, 614 children and 370 women have been killed in the attacks.
The foreign media also reported that the number of people injured in Israeli airstrikes exceeded 7,500.
Meanwhile, the Israeli media has reported that the body parts of a group of people who were taken hostage in Israel by the Hamas organization have been found during the operations carried out in the Gaza Strip.
