United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres harshly condemned the Israeli government on Sunday over its conduct in the Israel-Hamas war, as the civilian death toll in Gaza surpasses 25,000 💬 "Israel's military operations have spread massive destruction and killed civilians on a scale unprecedented during my time as secretary-general," Guterres said at a U.N. summit on Sunday. He reiterated calls for an "immediate humanitarian cease-fire to relieve the suffering in Gaza, allow humanitarian aid to reach everyone in need, and facilitate the release of hostages, which should be immediate and unconditional." Gutterres has repeatedly hammered the Israeli government for its conduct in the war, which began in early October following a Hamas surprise attack on Israel and has since developed into a full military invasion of the Gaza Strip. The Palestinian civilian death toll reached 25,000 on Sunday, the Gaza Health Ministry announced, with an additional 60,000 people injured, most of them women and children. ● The Israeli military campaign in Gaza has been viewed by experts as one of the most destructive in modern history. Much of Gaza City, once the largest settlement in the region, has been completely flattened by months of airstrikes. The Israeli military has also targeted sensitive sites including cemeteries with bulldozers, according to satellite imaging.
