Gaza is becoming a graveyard for children : UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres
New York (US) – “The war in Gaza is more than a humanitarian crisis. Gaza is becoming a graveyard for children. This is a crisis of humanity. With every passing hour, the need for a ceasefire is becoming more urgent and there should be immediate ceasefire”, demanded UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres.
The need for a humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza is getting more urgent with every passing hour.
The parties to the conflict & the international community face an immediate & fundamental responsibility:
Stop this inhuman collective suffering & dramatically expand humanitarian aid.

89 members of the UN team died
Guterres also informed that 89 staff members of the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) have been killed since the Israel-Hamas war began a month ago.
More @UN aid workers have been killed in recent weeks than in any comparable period in the history of our organization.
I join in the mourning of 89 of our @UNRWA colleagues who have been killed in Gaza – many of them with members of their family.

Guterres should also tell what action the United Nations will take against Hamas who is responsible for this. |
