UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres expressed surprise at Israel's escalation of bombardments in Gaza and called for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire. Guterres stated that instead of a pause, there has been an unprecedented escalation that undermines humanitarian objectives. The escalation follows Israel's reprisal for an attack by Hamas, resulting in a humanitarian catastrophe for Gaza's 2.3 million people. The communication blackout in Gaza is impeding aid efforts, including ambulances and evacuations.
