Guterres says Ramadan ‘opportunity’ to achieve truce in Gaza


Amman: UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres discussed Monday reaching a humanitarian truce in Gaza since Ramadan would be a “good opportunity” to realise a ceasefire.

According to Anadolu, Guterres said, “Yet even though Ramadan has begun – the killing, bombing and bloodshed continue in Gaza,” Guterres told journalists.

He added, “My strongest appeal today is to honour the spirit of Ramadan by silencing the guns – and removing all obstacles to ensure the delivery of lifesaving aid at the speed and massive scale required,”
