U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres calls for a ceasefire, hostage release, and increased aid in Gaza. He warns of devastating consequences and advocates for urgent humanitarian action. Despite continued Israeli strikes and expanded evacuation orders in Gaza, global concern mounts over escalating violence and its toll on civilians. The appeal comes amid an international donors’ conference in Kuwait, emphasizing the need for immediate action to mitigate human suffering and rebuild shattered lives. Gaza faces an impending humanitarian catastrophe, with casualties rising and thousands displaced.
