The United Nations secretary general, António Guterres, has said the protection of civilians “must be paramount”, warning that the Gaza Strip was becoming “a graveyard for children”.
 
“We must act now to find a way out of this brutal, awful, agonizing dead end of destruction,” said Guterres on Monday, repeating his calls for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire.
 
“Gaza is becoming a graveyard for children. Hundreds of girls and boys are reportedly being killed or injured every day,” Guterres said.
 
“Ground operations by the Israel Defense Forces and continued bombardment are hitting civilians, hospitals, refugee camps, mosques, churches and UN facilities including shelters. No one is safe,” Guterres told reporters.
