“The humanitarian disaster continues in Gaza, even though the ceasefire has provided a welcome respite,” Jorge Moreira da Silva, also UN Deputy Secretary-General, said at the end of a visit to the region.
He called for a “permanent ceasefire”, for “the immediate release of all hostages” and for “rapid and unimpeded access” for humanitarian aid.
