UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres stated on Monday that a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip alone is insufficient to resolve the conflict. He emphasised the necessity of a two-state solution where both Palestinians and Israelis can fully exercise their rights.
Guterres has plans to hold an international conference on the two-state solution in July, expressing hope that both parties can overcome difficulties to achieve a ceasefire.
Describing the situation as “horrific,” Guterres noted that Gaza is experiencing death and destruction on an unprecedented scale, severely undermining the basic conditions of human dignity.
“We absolutely need a permanent ceasefire in Gaza,” he said, stressing the urgent need for further action.
He also highlighted that the idea of five million people living in their own land without rights is contrary to both humanity and international law.
Despite international calls for a ceasefire, Israel has conducted a relentless offensive in Gaza since October 2023, resulting in the deaths of more than 58,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children according to Gaza's Health Ministry.
The ongoing bombardment has devastated the territory, causing severe food shortages and the spread of disease.
