UN Chief Blasts 'Lack of Compassion' for People in Gaza as Starvation Cases Surge
GAZA STRIP, JUL 25 – UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres calls for ceasefire amid over 1,000 Palestinians killed trying to access food since late May, describing Gaza's situation as a moral crisis.
- UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres strongly denounced the Hamas assault on southern Israel on October 7, 2023, an event that led to the outbreak of conflict in the Palestinian region.
- The war and subsequent Israeli aid blockade on Gaza from March led to surging starvation, especially among children, amid controlled aid by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.
- Guterres and ICRC President Mirjana Spoljaric described Gaza's crisis as a moral emergency marked by over 1,000 Palestinians killed accessing food aid since May 27 and intolerable human suffering.
- Guterres urged for a swift and lasting ceasefire, the unconditional freeing of all captives, and unrestricted humanitarian assistance, emphasizing the urgent need for action and condemning the widespread international disregard.
- The UN stands ready to scale up humanitarian operations if ceasefire deals are reached, though aid groups refuse to work with the GHF accusing it of supporting Israeli military goals.
