UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called for “silencing the guns” in Gaza and releasing the hostages held there since the start of the war on October 7, “to honor the spirit of Ramadan”.
As the Muslim world enters the holy month of fasting, many residents of the Palestinian territory were awakened by Israeli strikes which notably targeted the cities of Gaza in the north, Khan Younes and Rafah in the south.
“A generalized Israeli offensive in Rafah would sound the death knell for humanitarian aid programs in Gaza, where assistance to a population in great distress remains totally insufficient”, the UN chief warned on Monday March 11.
“I woke up in my tent and started crying about our fate. Suddenly I heard explosions and bombings,” he said. “The (Israeli) occupation does not want us to have moments of joy for Ramadan. We do not have food on the dinner table for breaking the fast Monday evening”, he added.
