“For almost two months, Israel has blocked food, fuel, medicine, and essential supplies from entering Gaza, leaving more than two million people without life-saving assistance,” Guterres stated.
He reiterated that humanitarian aid is non-negotiable, calling on Israel to protect civilians, approve aid programs, and facilitate their delivery.
Israel has now killed at least 52,365 Palestinians, including 15,626 children, 9,807 women, 3,854 elders, 236 journalists, 300 UNRWA staff and 1,502 medical staff, and injured more than 117,905, largely children, women and elderly, across the devastated coastal enclave.
