Gaza is a ‘Killing Field’, Says UN Chief, as Agencies Urge World to Act on Israel’s Blockade

Gaza: The UN's secretary-general has expressed grave concerns over the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip, stating that "aid has dried up [and] the floodgates of horror have re-opened" due to Israel's blockade and its resumed conflict with Hamas. Ant³nio Guterres emphasized the dire circumstances, describing Gaza as a "killing field" where civilians face an "endless death loop."

According to National News Agency - Lebanon, Guterres's remarks follow a call from the heads of six UN agencies urging global leaders to take immediate action to ensure food and essential supplies reach Palestinians in Gaza. Despite these appeals, Israel's foreign ministry has countered the claims, asserting that there is sufficient food in Gaza and accusing Guterres of "spreading slander against Israel."
