Guterres: The Level of Death and Destruction in Gaza is Unprecedented

Amir hagag UN Secretary-General António Guterres described what is happening in Gaza as "horrific," renewing his call for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza that would pave the way for a political solution based on the UN Charter, international law, and UN resolutions. Guterres emphasized, according to the UN Information Center, that the level of death and destruction witnessed in Gaza is unprecedented in recent times, undermining the most basic conditions of human dignity for the people of Gaza. Guterres expressed his hope that the parties would be able to overcome the difficulties they face in order to achieve a ceasefire. He added that a ceasefire is not enough; it must lead to a solution, noting that this solution will only be possible if both Palestinians and Israelis are able to live in a state where they can exercise their rights. He stated that this is why a conference on the two-state solution will be held in July, adding that the presence of 5 million people within a country and on their own land without any rights is completely contrary to humanity and international law. For her part, UNICEF Executive Director Catherine Russell called on Israel to review its rules of engagement in Gaza following the killing of seven children waiting in line for water at a distribution point. Russell noted that the incident came just days after several women and children were killed while queuing for food supplies. The UN official wrote in a post on Twitter, "The Israeli authorities must urgently review their rules of engagement and ensure full compliance with international humanitarian law, particularly the protection of civilians, including children." The United Nations has repeatedly condemned the killing of Palestinians seeking food aid amid the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza, where food security experts have warned that the entire population is not receiving enough food. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Arts & Culture Hawass Foundation Launches 1st Course to Teach Ancient Egyptian Language Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean
