On Saturday, United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres condemned the “unprecedented escalation” in the Israeli bombing of the Gaza Strip, renewing his call for an “immediate humanitarian ceasefire.”

Guterres said during a visit to Doha, "Unfortunately, instead of a truce, I was surprised by an unprecedented escalation in bombing and its devastating results, which undermines humanitarian goals."

He expressed his concern about the communications outage in the Gaza Strip, as well as his concern about the United Nations employees who are in Gaza to provide humanitarian aid.

“I reiterate my strong call for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire and to provide humanitarian relief at a level that matches the urgent needs of the people in Gaza, where a humanitarian catastrophe is unfolding before our eyes,” Guterres said.

The Gaza Strip has turned into pieces of flame since last night due to the complete disruption of the communications and Internet networks, causing a complete paralysis in the capabilities of the health system and the movement of ambulances and medical teams.

The Gaza Strip has been subjected to a stifling siege since 2007, but the Israeli occupation government has tightened the siege on the Strip since the start of the aggression 22 days ago, to include cutting off electricity and water, and preventing the entry of basic materials and fuel.

The occupation warplanes have continued to launch raids on the Gaza Strip since October 7, resulting in the death of 7,650 citizens, including 3,195 children and 1,863 women, in addition to wounding about 20,000, according to an infinite statistic.

Medical sources said that the occupation forces had committed 53 massacres in the Gaza Strip since last night and Saturday dawn, in the most violent and severe bombardment since the start of the aggression 22 days ago.
