‘Starvation is knocking on every door’: UN chief says situation in Gaza is ‘without parallel’

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres told the Security Council Gaza is a “horror show with a level of death and destruction without parallel in recent times”.
“Malnourishment is soaring. Starvation is knocking on every door. And now we are seeing the last gasp of a humanitarian system built on humanitarian principles,” Guterres said.
“That system is being denied the conditions to function. Denied the space to deliver. Denied the safety to save lives,” the UN chief urged.
Guterres added between the Israeli military’s latest operation in Deir el-Balah and the forced displacement orders issued, devastation is being “layered upon devastation”.
