Gaza aid is a mere ‘teaspoon’ of what is needed, says Guterres
Gaza aid is a mere ‘teaspoon’ of what is needed, says Guterres, amid widening starvation and destruction across the enclave.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres condemned the insufficient humanitarian aid entering Gaza amidst escalating Israeli military actions, stating the population faces near famine and severe suffering. Despite a recent partial easing of the blockade allowing some aid, he described it as “a teaspoon” compared to the urgent need, emphasizing that only a fraction of the needed supplies have reached the region. Guterres called for immediate, compliant humanitarian assistance, stressing the UN’s readiness to respond effectively.
